NEW KEYNOTE: Transforming Businesses with Big Data and Analytics
Monday Sept 23 @ 8:00am, Moscone North - Hall D
There has been an exciting addition to the agenda for this year's OpenWorld. On the Monday morning (Sept 23), Mark Hurd is using his keynote to talk about how businesses can transform themselves using big data and analytics. Given all the hype around these two hope topics this keynote will look at the promise of big data and how it enables your business to leverage a range of information to provide new services, operate more efficiently, and market more effectively.
This keynote will include key Oracle customers and other Oracle experts who will explain how to harness the value of big data; craft an IT strategy to stream, acquire, organize and analyze to make transformational decisions about business operations and products and services.
To make sure you do not miss this important session I have updated the Data Warehousing and Big Data Guide to include details of this important keynote:

Image courtesy of wikipedia This post covers one of the new SQL performance enhancements that we incorporated into Database 12c Release 2 . All of these enhancements are completely automatic, i.e. transparent to the calling app/developer code/query. These features are enabled by default because who doesn’t want their queries running faster with zero code changes? So in this post I am going to focus on the new In-Memory “cursor duration” temporary table  feature. Let’s start by looking at cursor duration temp tables… Above image courtesy of wikimedia.org What is a cursor duration temp table? This is a feature that has been around for quite a long time.

There has been quite a lot of interest in the new 12c MATCH_RECOGNIZE feature for SQL pattern matching. Therefore, I thought now would be the perfect time to start a series of quick deep dive posts that explain how SQL pattern matching works. Over the coming weeks I will cover the following topics in a series of posts. This is the start of a series of posts based on a presentation that I put together for the recent annual  BIWA conferenc e at Oracle HQ. The Oracle BI, DW and Analytics user community always puts on a great conference and this year was the best yet. You can download any or all of the presentations from this year’s conference by following this link . My pattern matching deep dive presentation started life about a year ago as a post covering some of the new keywords in the explain plan that are linked to pattern matching, see here . It has now expanded to cover a much wider range of topics. Firstly, a huge vote of thanks to my development team (Lei Sheng and Chun-Chie
