This talk is for database and information security professionals.

The database holds the crown jewels of the organization; however, the infosec security teams have little understanding of working of the database and database developers, designers, and DBAs have little understanding of security concepts. I get it, we get pressure from the top and the users to deliver a system with little time or budget to apply to database security. In this talk, we are going to take the 10,000 meter view of the database and look at the attack surface, attack vectors, and how to mitigate those attacks. At the end of the presentation, developers, designers, and DBAs will have action items they can take back to their shop and start improving security.

It is true. You can laugh your way to understanding queuing theory, performance analysis and why systems behave the way they do.

From driving in traffic to being served at a restaurant, every person feels the impact of queuing theory. Queuing theory beautifully relates time and work into terms we can feel, like utilization, workload intensity, response time, elapsed time and systems architecture design.

With only the basics we can use foundational queuing theory to derive targeted performance solutions and goals, filter and evaluate any performance solution thrown at us and help non-technical people understand why our solutions make perfect sense.

Join us for a shockingly practical and fun session that will impact your Oracle career and beyond.
