| Chris Date | What is a Relational Database? Shedding Some Light. | So what is the TransRelational model? In essence, it is an implementation technology; it represents among other things a radically new and elegant approach to the question of implementing the relational model. | Keynote | 90 | Chris Date | http://www.justsql.co.uk/chris_date/chris_date.htm | English |
| Tom Kyte | Things you "know" | Many developers and DBAs (not all, but many) approach the
database with little or no understanding of how it actually works. Developers
approach Oracle assuming it must work just like SQL Server or even worse with
the frame of mind that says, "It doesn't matter how it works, I'm using
a layer of abstraction to protect me." DBAs approach the server
sometimes with a cursory knowledge of how things work, leading them to do
things like, "We can skip backing up undo data-it isn't our stuff, we
don't need it" or erasing archives because they ran out of space. This presentation will present some of these foibles and explain how not understanding how the database actually works will lead to disaster. Some examples of things you just might not know about yourself will be explored. Oracle is big and it is a moving target. Understanding it is an ongoing process that we need to continually do. |

| Tom Kyte | SQL Techniques | The presenter will describe common SQL techniques he has encountered and utilizes day to day to tune query performance. Features such as scalar subqueries, using rownum (yes, to 'tune'), analytics, some hints and more will be demonstrated. Emphasis will be on when they work (where the 'trick' applies) as well as when they don't workwhere they do not apply. Care will be taken to show these not as a "top 10 things to do" but rather techniques to keep in mind when looking at problems in general. | General | 60 | Oracle | Tom Kyte is a Senior Technical Architect in Oracle’s Server Technology Division.

| Ronald Bradford | Explaining the MySQL EXPLAIN | Determining the Query Execution Plan (QEP) of an SQL statement is the primary analysis tool for DBAs. Understanding how to interpret the information from the EXPLAIN command and what additional commands and tools exist to add supplementary information are essential skills that will be used daily in production operations. | Java MySQL OpenSolaris | 60 | Ronald Bradford | http://effectivemysql.com/presentation/explaining-the-mysql-explain/ | English |
| Ronald Bradford | Understanding MySQL Indexes | There are some basic problems regarding how MySQL and MySQL
Storage Engines implement indexes in relation to other RDBMS products
including Oracle. In this presentation attendees will learn how to identify and verify MySQL index usage, what essential MySQL Tools exists for determining how to create better indexes and be able to verify the results of improvements. Understanding how the optimizer chooses indexes, generally only one index per table join and also the exceptions. Learn about advanced topics including covering indexes and partial column/prefix column indexes. |

| Randolf Geist | Advanced Oracle Troubleshooting - Live Session | In this session we'll walk through some common troubleshooting scenarios, starting with the usual inefficient execution plan issues, showing that the Oracle Wait Interface and Session Statistics are usually well suited to spot anomalies and determine where excess work happens.
