Hai Tao's Blog: Tech Forum & Workshop in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore & Indonesia

I have been staying in KL for the last 4 days for a tech forum and hands-on workshop hosted in KL.

This forum explains how ISVs can build their applications using oracle technology and grow their business with market leaders (Oracle & Sun). It also covers the new features, benefit and how to use technical resources available exclusively to our ISVs.

In the workshop, Oracle (My team) will assist ISVs attendees migrating their application from other databases or middleware to Oracle technology.

I reached KL two days earlier before the event open. For the first two days of my staying, I am quite busy in preparing the user environment like work stations, servers (from Sun) and network setup as this is the first time for our Malaysia partner (co-organizer) hosting this kind of event. At the last 2 days, i gave the technical talk about migration methodology and help ISVs solve their issues during the hands-on migration session.

In my speech, i covered the migration methodology, approaches and things they need to consider for the DB migration , J2EE & Application Server (AS) migration and Oracle Forms migration. Some migration tools from oracle have been introduced to our ISVs, with which migration can be automated & simplified and duration of migration can be shorten. Demonstration of how to use those tools is also given after the speech.

Here is the material for the migration, you can dig out more from the links i am giving in the ppt.

There are actually some photos taken by our partner on that day and I am in the midst of geting them and upload here. So, keep tuned for the photos.
