  1. Update from Oracle OpenWorld, November 15th-18th 1999,Los Angeles Eric Grancher IT/DB

  2. The conference • 18'000 attendees + 500 technical sessions + 120 hands-on sessions + 300 exhibitors = biggest Oracle event ever • Campground + panel sessions + “ask Oracle” sessions were very efficient places to retrieve information • Few sessions about Y2k :-)

  3. RDBMS • Lot of sessions related to tuning and VLDB • 8iR2 (=8.1.6) announced at the conference, mostly bug fixes + integration of external products (OID, XML…) • New Enterprise Manager (version 2.1) • OPS widely used (even internally) • 40+ TB database are used

  4. iFS • File are stored as LOB, indexed using InterMedia • Automatic extraction of properties and indexing of documents • Accessible using SMTP/IMAP4, SMB/CIFS, HTTP (both file management and administration) • Security based on the database, ACLs can be used • Makes use of transactions, check-in/check-out, file versioning • API to extend iFS (from new content type to renderer) • Beta 2 (C rewrite) was about to be released (now out) IMAP4 Net8 Oracle8i/iFS SMB HTTP CIFS Win95 WinNT

  5. WebDB Create DB objects Create reports Create forms Create menus • WebDB version 3 seems to be the version to go, manageability has been increased: • virtual users • several applications in one account • authentication via LDAP (OID), common for RDBMS+WebDB • future release will store documents in iFS • “It’s not just for simple applications anymore” • 2000Q2? HTTP WebDB

  6. JDeveloper • 2 versions • JDeveloper • Java IDE (JBuilder from Inprise) + BC4J, SQLJ, JDBC, EJB, Java in the RDBMS, Servlet • JDeveloper Enterprise Edition • UML modeler • shares it repository with Designer • Several modelers : case, activity, type, component, package, database designer • Several generators : instant Java, server model, server generator, BC4J. • No merging with Designer • Mid 2000?

  7. Java in the RDBMS • direct calls to Java Stored Proc via HTTP in 8.1.7 (JSP + Servlets), release 2000Q3? • JAccelerator, translation of the bytecode into ANSI C, native compilation, link with DLL at execution. Released with 8.2 (2001Q1?)

  8. OAS • No big news • New cartridges, JWeb replaced by JServlet • “PL/SQL cartridge will stay forever”, manager said • Sessions on tuning for the web (99%)

  9. XML • Using XML within the RDBMS has been drastically enhanced • Java, PL/SQL and C parsers • XML SQL utility • XSQL Server

  10. Developer / Designer • Designer (2000Q1?) and Developer (2000Q2?) will go version 6i (=6.5) • Designer 6i : configuration management, impact analysis… • Developer : developer server, Java, EJB and Advanced Queuing integration • Designer to generate web applications

  11. Directions • WebDB • JDeveloper • Java (but PL/SQL will stay “forever” and is still enhanced) • iFS • OPS + small # of fatter nodes • Refocus on core and externalize • Few about ORDBMS • Business oriented & portals/portlets

  12. Proceedings on the web http://www.oracle.com/openworld/index2.html Report (with link to some papers) : http://home.cern.ch/grancher/oug/ioug/oow1999.html (PL/SQL performance, finding the performance bottleneck in your application, Java for PL/SQL programmer, WebDB3 preview, XML in the server, OAS tuning...)
