It was a pleasant surprise to run into my former Oracle colleague Josh Tieso. Josh (pictured right) is Sr. Oracle DBA at United Healthcare. He used to work for Oracle Support years ago but for the last 6 years at UHC. Josh is a member of the ERP DBA
team, working with Exalogic, Oracle ERP R12, & RAC.
Along the exhibit/vendor row, I met with Marco Gangano, National Sales Manager at Mythics. It was great getting to meet Marco and I look forward to working with his company with regards to Support Best Practices.
In addition, Lissette Paez (left) was representing TAM Training. TAM Training is an Oracle University, award-winning training partner. They cover training across the scope of Oracle products with 7 facilities in the U.S. Lissette and I have done a couple of these Oracle Days before. It's great to see familiar faces.
A little while ago, I was down in this area to work with Citrix with an onsite session on Support Best Practices. Pablo Leon and Alberto Gonzalez (right)came to chat with me over at the Support booth. They wanted to know when I was giving my session. Unfortunately, not this time guys. I'm on booth duty only. Keep in touch.
Many thanks to our sponsors: BIAS, Cloudera, Intel and TekStream Solutions.Come attend one of the many Oracle Days & other events planned for you.
