Having a single SQL and PL/SQL layer to work with any workload or data handled by your Oracle Database allows for seamless integration and communication between different microservices. Whether you’re working with a blockchain, JSON Collections, s...

Accessing your data and application logic inside the database from your automation tasks, reports, applications, or even end-users is further simplified by having a single protocol that can be used from any application platform or programming language, HTTPS. REST APIs for the Oracle Database can be a critical component to making your microservices come to life!

This session will demonstrate how you can use REST APIs to work with different types of data, database workloads, and even across multiple databases or pluggable databases, all secured with your application server security model or OAuth2 Clients. We’ll also cover how to document those APIs so your application developers can take advantage of them!

We are faced with database migrations very often and have to deal with a variety of issues like data types compatibility, version issues, database size and restrictions regarding downtime, performance on the new platforms, special requirements associated with the application to name just a few. A database migration if well planned and executed can be very smooth and seamless and we can even have a value add of – increased performance on the destination platform or can end up with an excruciatingly long and tedious process plagued with errors and failures – in short a nightmare. After having managed many migrations from variety of database technologies, one does assemble a few main tasks to focus on and tips and tricks which will ensure a smooth migration. Using a couple of use cases from federal space I would like to highlight some methodologies that I have followed to create a repeatable process for Sybase to Oracle migration.

Discover the benefits Oracle Database customers can anticipate when moving to a Power10 based system as we uncover the design of IBM's latest generation of Power.

During this session, we will discuss advantages of the new Power10 based system which include:

Evaluating the migration of older Database versions to a current version
Managing your workload requirements when moving to the newer and faster architecture
Improving reliability
Enhancing Security

This session will leverage our practical hands on experience on how a Power10 based system can help you when moving from Database version 11gR2 to 19c to assure ongoing support from Oracle.
