10 Skyros Style!

11 Exalytics X4-4 Announced 50% Faster 3TB Memory 4.8TB Flash 7.2TB Disk Oracle DB 12c w/in Memory

12 Implications of Exalytics Oracle wants to sell engineered systems The in-memory answer TimesTen? Featured far more than Exalogic Renewed emphasis on enabling the front end Oracle in memory database will be integrated into Exalytics. John Fowler has interesting insights into architecture. Seems (we hope) the middleware gang is listening

13 Tuesday OTBI Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence Source is Fusion applications UI is beautiful OTBIE Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence Enterprise For specific applications (see for OTBIE Human Capital Management Cloud Service) BI Apps and ODI Informatica is dead end for BI Apps Migration will be supported. Little detail on that. New implementations should use ODI R coming to OBIEE Embedded R Engine

14 Oracle BI Takeaways SampleApp is major Oracle BI platform OBIEE will be framework, extend via plugins Oracle should capitalize on CEIM capabilities and approach Oracle concerned about competition from Tableau and similar Endeca front end will be integrated What is BI Admin tool replacement? Cloud will influence BI future

15 It s All Clear Now Now we have OBIA, OTBI, OTBIE, and OBIEE. BI apps now generally have the analytics in their title, but they re still called BI Apps. OBISE has been deprecated. Also BI Foundation Suite

16 Tuesday Night Vlamis Reception Good turnout Street construction Great contacts with Oracle and customers Oracle Press Party Not in basement anymore! New book coming out end of 2014

19 Friday Special SQL Analytics Session at Oracle HQ In depth session on using SQL to do analytics People spent by Friday tough to absorb technical topics

20 Fun Parts of OpenWorld Going to cocktail parties and seeing who knows you Vegetarian lunch etiquette. If you re a non-veg diner, don t take the veggie lunch. No races on the big screens this year. Did have local rock bands playing between North and South. Talked our way into the Java Events. I guess it s open source.

21 Recap Oracle talks about Analytics, but not always a concrete message Visualization is hugely important Successful firms are actively developing analytics Oracle focused on cloud Oracle BI will change a lot in next few years Everybody in BI and analytics needs to learn Big Data Oracle should use database as a compute engine R will be everywhere in analytic applications

22 Looking to OOW 2015 October 25-29, 2015 Reserve hotel early Stay in Union square area (but loud) Next year we predict will be big for Oracle Business Intelligence 12c Oracle Advanced Analytics (ODM and ORE) ORAAH (Oracle Advanced Analytics for Hadoop) Big Data Discovery / Big Data SQl Lots of R Suggest Oracle share more and sell less. People attending OOW already are sold on Oracle. Help attendees with software.
