Once again the JD Edwards Advisor gives us some great insight to Oracle’s OpenWorld 2008. Lee came up with 4 things that he thought were the top takeaways:
- Oracle’s roadmap for JD Edwards applications remains clear and promising.
- Oracle is shifting its focus from making strategic pronouncements to executing on them.
- New functions for Oracle’s ERP suites will increasingly be delivered via edge applications, standalone tools, and software as a service (SaaS).
- Fusion Applications will be available soon. However, many customers will care less…and Oracle won’t be offended.
Be sure to read the entire article.

Late afternoon yesterday, I attended a session at Oracle OpenWorld called "JD Edwards Web Server High Availability with Oracle Enterprise Linux". It was given by Marcelo Tamassia, CD Group, Inc. Oracle Technology Manager, and Tony Price, Carolina Biological Supply.
They explained a technology called Linux Virtual Server (LVS). LVS is used as a low cost load balancing and high availability solution. Fortunately, it is available in most Linux kernels. So, you can use it even if you don’t have Oracle Enterprise Linux.
Essentially, it is two low-end servers or high-end workstations that are running LVS placed between the end user and your web servers. This little cluster is used as a sort of proxy to direct traffic to the web servers.
I hope to give more info on this as I play around with it.

Lee Kroon, on The JD Edwards Advisor, has some great tips on getting the most out of your attendance of Oracle OpenWorld. Below is a quick rundown, but go to the article to get the details.
- Stay close to the hotel where most of the JD Edwards sessions take place.
- I think this one is really important. Even though it is usually more expensive, try to stay in a hotel within walking distance to all your activities. Its is well worth it. - Plan what sessions you will attend in advance.
- Save space in your schedule for some hot sessions.
- Use the session schedule to figure out what big announcements Oracle is going to make.
- Start networking now.
- Bring (or buy) your own water container.
