Oracle Open World: It’s a wrap …

Wow, what a week this was. Oracle announced so many new technologies that by the third day, most of the attendees suffered from an information overload.

Some of the buzz words on Oracle Open World 2012:

  • Cloud, Cloud and more Cloud
  • Mobile
  • Social
  • Big Data
  • Exadata X3
  • Predictive Analytics
  • Pluggable Databases
  • SaaS
  • PaaS
  • IaaS

On the Applications level the most important message was the continued commitment of Oracle. Not forcing customers to Fusion Applications, but enhancing the user experience to increase productivity and efficiency. For PeopleSoft this is achieved in 9.2 and PeopleTools 8.53 with the following features:

  • Branding
  • Integration Hub Licensing
  • Pivot Grids
  • Dashboards
  • Mobile
  • PeopleSoft Update Manager, delivering PeopleSoft on VirtualBox
  • Activity Guide  Framework
  • Train stops
  • Secure Enterprise Search

It has been a great week of meeting the pros that build the features and having had a peek at the future. I know I got inspired to try new technologies and solutions the moment I get home.
