Some random thoughts on OOW17 by Arturo Viveros

Oracle Open World 2017 has come and gone already, but it left behind some really interesting points worth revisiting.

The conference spans so much, but I want to focus mainly on the topics related to my own expertise (Integration, Java, Application Development). So let’s cut to the chase and take a look at the highlights:

· Focus is on Developers – the Java & Open Source movements seem stronger than ever, with JavaOne recovering a leading role this year and OracleCode summoning enthusiastic crowds on its first appearance at Open World. Also, Oracle has visibly placed a lot of importance on programs such as the Developer Community space, Developer Champion award, etc.

  • Oracle PaaS has finally broken through – with increased maturity in most of the services, plenty of customer success stories and some nice improvements to the licensing model, PaaS adoption has become increasingly viable. This is an especially important moment for integration-focused partners, as in my opinion those who are able to better cope with the paradigm shift will be able to take full advantage of the growing market.
  • Modern Architectures are at the Center of Innovation Read the complete article here. & Get the Oracle OpenWorld presentations and demos here.

My key takeaways from Oracle OpenWorld & JavaOne 2017 by Luis Augusto Weir

December 4, 2017 Leave a comment

I’ve just literally arrived from Oracle Open World and JavaOne 2017 and my head still hurts with so many interesting announcements and cool new things I want to get my hands on and learn. This blogpost provides a short summary of my impressions and key takeaways from both events.

General overview:

This year OOW and JavaOne was full of changes from previous ones. For starting most of the sessions took place between Moscone South, Moscone West and the Marriot Marquis, as opposed to all over the place. I understand that this was mainly due to renovations that took place in Moscone which meant that more rooms were available.
JavaOne this year took place in Moscone West (as opposed to Hilton Union Square). First thing that really stroke me was the vast amount of people that seemed to have attended the event (see below tweet from Adam Bien). Not sure if more people attended JavaOne than OOW, but my first observation is that sessions in JavaOne were better attended than those in OOW (at least in the areas am interested on and from what I could see -this is a personal view so don’t get offended if you disagree).
My second observation from this year’s event was the increased focus to the Developers audience. A clear change of direction from previous years (in my view for good), and it shows that Oracle is committed and trying hard to engage the broader developer communities (not just Oracle’s traditional one). In my view Oracle is taking solid and promising first steps towards achieving this goal and hopefully this article highlights some of them.

OOW 17 is behind us and is was again an amazing and informative experience to attend one of the world biggest and relevant IT conferences.

Time to give you an overview on contributions and outcomes I was involved in. In total, I delivered 4 sessions:

  • Strategies for Efficient Delivery with APIs, Containers, Microservices, DevOps
  • Soaring Through the Clouds: Live Demo of 17 Oracle PaaS Services Working Together

In addition, my colleague Danilo Schmiedel and me did an Dev interview with Bob Rhubart about APIs and Microservices and it’s meaning with respect to modern software architectures. Read the complete article here. & Get the Oracle OpenWorld presentations and demos here.

Returning from the excitement of Oracle OpenWorld, it’s good to pause and reflect on the highlights of the major Oracle event of the year. There were a significant number of key announcements across the entire product stack – IaaS, PaaS, SaaS and DaaS. With our focus on IaaS and PaaS we have shared a few of the key take-aways below.

What was also noticeable this year, was the level of engagement from partners and customers talking about their use-cases and implementations, sharing their findings and experiences with Oracle Cloud PaaS. It is exciting to see the momentum building and the great value customers are starting to derive from their cloud-based implementations.
