I mentioned in my posting yesterday that, whilst at Open World last week, I was struck by the many conversations I had with people around Oracle business intelligence and Service Orientated Architectures (generally shortened to SOA and, within Oracle, pronounced “So-ah”.)

Elsewhere a question popped up relating to binds on partition keys. David Aldridge ran some tests (also posted here) that indicated that binds would use global table stats rather than partition stats. Of course this is intuitive; the partition is not known at parse time and is only resolved at run time so the only […]

Well I’m back in the UK now, and I’ve had yesterday and this morning to myself before the family gets back from Ireland.

I just happened to check out the dashboard on my wordpress installation and noticed a trackback from Jonathan Lewis’ new blog. I bumped into Jonathan in the lobby of the King George last week and he mentioned that he was going to give the idea a try; from looking at the first entry he’s going to […]

Yesterday was the Business Intelligence CAB meeting, which consisted of a number of presentations to BI customers and partners on Oracle’s ongoing product direction.

An early night for me for once, as I’m back now from the Oracle Press event and catching up with the last few presentations of the day. In the end I went to the Server Technology Beta Program event, then the Oracle Press event, and I got a chance to spend some time with Arup […]

I’ve just come out of the “What’s New with Oracle Business Intelligence 10.1.3.2″ presentation by David Granholm, and there’s a bunch of new details on what’s coming up with this new release.
