Oracle Open World 2009 conference is held from Oct, 11th to Oct, 14th in Moscone Center in San Francisco, California.
It is much like an ICITFS 2009 conference held by Statestreet which lasts for 3 days in Yuquan Campus, Hangzhou. The difference is that the CEOs of very large and prestigious companies come to OOW to give speeches, while we are not able to invite that kind of heavy-weight guests or speakers in our conference.
OOW is tremendous and incredible. Some videos, audios and presentations as well as transcripts of certain speeches were uploaded to Oracle OpenWorld website (http://ondemandpreview.vportal.net/) and shared by thousands and thousands of people who are not able to attend live.
I am thrilled to see my giant imaginary mentor, oracle guru Thomas Kyte`s session which is the only technical session that is recorded! The session went very well, as he puts it himself ‘it went well. Everyone laughed when they were supposed to, and didn't when they weren't. Even got a bit of spontaneous applause every now and then’;
I want to go over all the session videos that are available but I can`t. I only get the time to watch some of them like Tom`s of course, Larry Ellison--Oracle`s co-founder and current CEO as well as special guest, Chief Executive of California -- Arnold Schewarzenegger.
The thing that Larry mainly talks about is the big picture and the general directions that Oracle as well as Sun is to going to take. How amazing features will be built into Oracle in future. And how oracle`s products are performing well comparing to others`. It is really attractive future and we all look forward to it. At the end of his speech, he invite the Arnold Schewarzenegger to give a speech and he did and it was brilliant and funny! I will not elaborate his speech here, but one thing I like to mention is that: Arnold is here not because of the success of those terminator`s movies, but his true talent and real capability!
At the end, Larry presents Arnold a nice Oracle BMW Americas Cup racing jacket!
