Three AUSOUG announcements (incl free breakfast!)

If you like a free breakfast, then you should visit the Perth Oracle Building on Friday Oct 21 from 7:30-9am. Visiting Victorian branch president Barbara Rabinowicz will be presenting on Oracle Database Security.

Oracle database security is a topic that impacts on ALL Oracle professionals.


Database security is an important aspect of the database which is often overlooked. This presentation will cover the security and auditing aspects of the database. It will include securing methods, monitoring and auditing techniques of the database environment in areas of network security,authentication, authorisation issues, links, replication, database Trojan and more.


The session will include a demo of configuring Oracle Network Encryption.

I had the pleasure of meeting Barbara at Insync11, and unfortunately I missed out on her talk while over there - so here's everyone's chance from Perth to see her in our final event before the conference, and remember - breakfast is free - and based on the last event, quite tasty.

We have lined up something a little different in one of the keynote slots at the AUSOUG conference this year - we have lined up an informal style panel opening the floor to discussions regarding a career that involves public speaking as an Oracle expert.
Panelists coming (almost) straight from OOW including Yury Velikanov, Debra Lilley, Tim Hall, Connor McDonald & Chris Muir.

More details to come soon.

And we have some updates to the schedule with people bringing even more information straight from OOW - Paul Kangro from Oracle will be lettings us know about

• Oracle Enterprise Manager 12C – Managing in the Clouds
• The New OVM 3.0 – Virtualization from Oracle

We also have meet the speakers program, facilitating opportunities to have a 15 minute discussion with some of our experts. Email our conference manager for more information or register soon!

The WA committee has also organised an end of year party for all our AUSOUG members. This year it will be fun filled time lawn bowling at Perth & Tattersall's Bowling Club, 2 Plain St Perth from 4pm Wednesday December 7th, 2011. Further details will be available closer to the event.

Hope to see you soon!
