Out of the box, Oracle Application Express offers plenty of functionality to solve most business problems. This session explores the vast and rich set of Oracle Application Express components as well as offers advice as to what not to do when building Oracle Application Express applications to ensure that you stay debt free.

Hear lessons learned on a voyage to Oracle’s newest low code RAD tool, Visual Builder Cloud Service (VBCS). Is development really drag and drop? How much of a JavaScript expert (or not) do I need to be? What are the best use cases for VBCS vs APEX or some other dev tool? What about mobile apps? How do I get my data there? Isn’t it expensive? What investment do I really need to benefit from VBCS for production applications? Was this voyage worth the effort, and can VBCS make a difference for my cloud investment? Attend and learn about a long-time Oracle APEX developer’s adventure into VBCS.

Using the Dynamic Oracle Performance Analytics Framework
Roger Cornejo, GlaxoSmithKline
Date: Tuesday, September 17
Time: 5:15 - 6:00 PM
Location: Moscone West - Room 3020A

In this session learn how to use an innovative dynamic performance analytics approach that relies on big data and advanced analytical techniques to analyze and improve Oracle Database performance. The easy-to-use approach is a step-change paradigm shift away from traditional methods that typically rely on a small subset of metrics (which may cause you to miss important system behavior) or the difficult task of pinpointing the issue through an Automatic Workload Repository report. The dynamic performance analytics process targets the most relevant metrics for the problem interval, which results in event-focused and actionable insight/intelligence on the performance issue, and helps you draw impactful and focused performance improvement conclusions.
