OpenWorld call for Papers closes today!

By -

 Just a gentle reminder - if you have not submitted a paper for this year's OpenWorld conference then there is still just enough time because the deadline is Today (Tuesday, April 15) at 11:59pm PDT. The call for papers website is here http://www.oracle.com/openworld/call-for-papers/index.html and this provides all the details of how and what to submit.

I have been working with a number of customers on some really exciting papers so I know this year's conference is going to be really interesting for data warehousing and analytics. I would encourage everyone to submit a paper, especially if you have never done this before. Right now both data warehousing and analytics are among the hottest topics in IT and I am sure all of you have some great stories that you could share with your industry peers who will be attending the conference. It is a great opportunity to present to your peers and also learn from them by attending their data warehouse/analytics sessions during this week long conference. And of course you get a week of glorious Californian sunshine and the chance to spend time in one of the World's most beautiful waterfront cities.

If you would like any help submitting a proposal then feel free to email during today and I will do my best to provide answers and/or guidance. My email address is keith.laker@oracle.com.

Have a great day and get those papers entered into our OpenWorld system right now!

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. Cursor duration temporary tables (CDTs) are used to materialize intermediate results of a query to improve performance or to support complex multi step query execution. The following types of queries commonly use cursor duration temp tables: WITH Clause and parallel recursive WITH Grouping Sets Star Trans

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
