Greetings All -
Oracle is making a big mistake for not sponsoring these great events such
as RackAttack. They should know that in the Midwest area where I do most of
my IT consulting, this big trend of companies that either have moved away
from Oracle or they in the process of migrating to other open source
databases. I know even some of my DBA friends who used to work for Oracle,
have left Oracle..
Someone in Oracle at the higher level is not looking at the big picture. I
am almost certain Oracle will loose a big chunk of database market within
5yrs. I've worked with Oracle products for about 15yrs now, I really
believe that Oracle could have been the leader in the Cloud by now, but
amazingly enough a retail & a non IT company such as Amazon came out of
nowhere and ate their lunch. You can keep this email for the record and
mark my words what is going to happen in 5yrs from now..
All the best !

Unfortunately OTN didn’t confirm anything. AFAIK – OTN lounge is for
everybody and we will be there around with our laptops and accept guests
who would like to learn something about RAC
Do you think we have to talk to anybody? If yes, then who can do it?
We have very limited time, OOW17 is around the corner J

Hi,
We might meet at the OTN Lounge Wednesday morning...
I can cover 2-3 hours (9AM-12PM?) but I would like to spend the rest of
the day at the demo grounds.
Let me know if you have other preferences!

Hi,
We can always ask the participants to creat Oracle accounts in advance to
have access to the free try out (it will give them at last access to
Instances for 48/72 hrs - mine 300 US$ lasted for 3 days LoL)
Cheers,
Francisco

I didn’t get email back from Oracle regarding 1 day free trial cloud
account or providing PCs for RAC installation and etc.
So the only chance to organize the RACAttack at OOW is to set a time and
attend OTN lounge with RACAttack Ninja advertisements and just be there
with our Clusterware installed laptops or with cloud accounts and invite
participants just to be there to discuss and practice some RAC staff. So
for me, plan is:
- Set a date/time (NOT IN (‘Sunday’,’Thursday’). First part of
the day is preferable
- Create list of volunteers who will be at OTN lounge for 4-6
hours
- Create list of practical cases to show and discuss with
participants
So for now, the list of Ninjas is like follows. Please feel free to
add/remove your name to the list:
Kamran Aghayev
Mahir Guluzade
Liron Amitzi
Ludovico Caldara
Ilmar Kerm
Francisco Munoz Alvarez
Tim Hall
Franck Pachot
Heli Helskyaho
Elise
Erik Benner

So I'm curious... who _will_ be at oow this year? Who would be interested
in helping Kamran organize something? Who can visit for a little bit and
help people through RAC installs?

Hello Ninjas!
I know it might be a bit late to start organising something for #OOW17
just 2 weeks before the event, but I still believe we can do something.
Just wrote an email to Jennifer and Lori to get some support from them. It
might be a few free cloud trial account to build 2 node RAC databases that
will be active only the RACAttach day. Or providing some PCs or just
providing a place for us to come with our laptops and show something to
participants
IMHO - Instead of helping participants to install the Clusterware and
create 2 node RAC database (if we will not have plenty of time), we can
prepare some hands-on practical scenarios or demonstrate some 12cR2 new
features
Please guys share your opinion and let's create different scenarios for
participants and bring our laptops with already installed GI and rock at
OOW17! :)
Have a safe travel and hope to see all of you soon at SFO!
