AWS continuously rolls out new tools and capabilities around analytics at a pace that can be hard to keep up with, much less take advantage of.  In this session, we will provide an overview of the AWS suite of analytics tools, discuss current concepts such as data lakes, unstructured data, ML and AI, and review some ways that customers can begin experimenting on their own to see what areas would be beneficial to their business.

Database In-Memory is targeted at speeding up analytic queries by orders of magnitude over traditional row-based queries. Join Oracle Product Management in a journey that will take you through the architecture and features of Database In-Memory. Learn how to get started with Database In-Memory, how to identify which objects to populate in memory, how to identify which indexes to drop, and details on how to integrate it with other performance-enhancing features of Oracle Database. This session will also show you how Database In-Memory speeds up your analytic workload and will provide tips on how to configure Oracle Database to get the biggest performance benefits. This session will not cover what Database In-Memory is, but will instead tell you how it works and what to do to implement it.

Do you know how a large and complex organization like LA Unified School District has successfully rolled out a comprehensive business intelligence application that is business-oriented and producing results with data-driven decisions!  LAUSD Enterprise Reporting uses Kafka, ODI and Oracle technology components to deal with never-ending streams of events, to use Real-time or near-real-time processing to detect patterns and trends,  to build a suite of interactive dashboards based on streaming data integration for district executives, principals, teachers, counselors, and families with over 300 K-12 metrics and KPIs that provide whole child, whole school, whole district insight.  The session is planned as an interactive one, with a real-time demo, presented by a senior leader of the School District who has played a key role in the planning and execution of the huge effort.

Robots may be the first to truly learn Machine Learning (ML) and expand into Artificial Intelligence (AI). Python is one of the keys to Machine Learning as we program the invention of Man's Mind to further replace man's most basic tasks. This session will focus on ML 101 and building the future ahead.

We are creatures of habit. We tend to stay the course concerning what we create and how we create it. But is this tendency causing us to settle for just good enough? From OBIEE to Data Visualization Desktop to Oracle Analytics Cloud… this is not your parent’s OBIEE. Maybe it’s time for a reboot?

In this presentation, we’ll explore the new face of Oracle Analytics, both literally by looking at Oracle Data Visualization, and figuratively with how advances in the platform can affect our approach and methodology. If you are new to Oracle Analytics, I’ll convince you that this product is capable of enabling a data-driven culture. If you’ve been around the block a few times with OBIEE, then I’ll make you question how you’ve delivered analytics in the past.

Can you convert an integrated Data Warehouse to a set of Micro Services?

In this presentation we discuss the benefits of Micro Services, look at how we can convert a working Data Warehouse into independent microservices, discuss the pitfalls and demonstrate a real-life project where we converted our Data Warehouse to Micro Services.  This enabled a small team to provide frequent releases, increase automation, and become more agile.

Data is the fuel for AI - the 21st century equivalent for what electricity did for the 20th century. AI will change everything! Companies that aggregate data from multiple sources, enriched with AI, will have a distinct advantage. Come to this session to learn how Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse, Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Oracle Digital Assistant, offer seamless conversational access to make ad-hoc queries like nothing else before. It's like superpowers for your teams!

DBAs spend time dealing with maintenance, security, and outage issues with little time for innovation. Self-driving, self-securing, and self-repairing Autonomous Databases free data professionals to leverage their domain knowledge and data skills to extract more value from data. Oracle Machine Learning, part of Autonomous Database, “moves the algorithms to the data” for in-database processing of machine learning algorithms that eliminate data movement. Now, the entire machine learning process:  problem statement, data understanding and preparation, model building and evaluation, model apply and model deployment runs inside the Oracle Database.   Database developers perform many supporting tasks today, typically 80% of the work, but refer to them as ETL, data wrangling, data transformations, and productionizing scripts.   Come learn how ADW, ATP, and Oracle Machine Learning makes it easy for you to easily expand your valuable data skills and become “data scientists” in just 6 weeks!

Large cities are often the most progressive adapters of technology of government institutions. Join us as we discuss the challenges of large, diverse user groups like finance, roads and transportation, public health and safety including fire and police, parks and recreation, and license and regulatory enforcement. We’ll review the most useful frameworks and methods that bring value to the analytic systems of cities and other similar government agencies. We’ll also use publicly available data to demonstrate how to leverage the power of Oracle Analytics in delivering powerful results and value.
