Oracle, LDAP and AD (Active Directory)                                Integrating the Three Together

Debra Addeo
This presentation will give an overview of how to integrate the 3 technologies for user id and password management along with a quick introduction into LDAP and Active Directory. The Oracle database has packages that allow access to Active Directory, Oracle Internet Directory and any other LDAP enabled directory for validating passwords for user ids. This allows developers to delegate the password management policies to another system without code maintenance. These stored packages are also used by other Oracle tools (i.e. Apex) to integrate applications with an LDAP server. A quick overview of how to integrate LDAP in Apex will also be discussed.

10:45am - 12:00pm  
Microsoft Reporting Services to report on                                Oracle E-Business data                               

Carole Furnish
We at Douglas County School District have had Oracle E-Business in place for over 12 years. You would think that after this time, at least most reporting requirements would have been met. Yet users still have difficulty getting the information they need and Apps Development continues to receive a flood of tickets requesting information or modifications to reports. This talk discusses a new approach to the reporting problem, as well as the use of a new tool, Microsoft Reporting Services.

01:00pm - 02:15pm  
Know your User Community with Oracle                                Identity Management

Niklas Iveslatt and Jenny McGurk
This presentation will be a case study of a full-scale Oracle Identity Management Suite Implementation (Oracle Identity Manager, Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Virtual Directory) with a user base of 6000 employee users. Identity Management, Access Control and Security are among the most important concerns of today's Enterprises. A decade of rapid application development and system deployments have left companies with disjointed user and password stores. It takes an army of people to provision and control access to the many applications, users cannot remember their user logins and passwords, and it takes weeks before new employees have the right access to all necessary applications.

This presentation will be technical in nature and will give an overview of how the Oracle Identity Management Suite solution addresses the above problems. Oracle Virtual Directory, Oracle Access Manager and Oracle Enterprise Single Sign-On will be discussed.

However, the emphasis will be on how Oracle Identity Manager solves real life provisioning problems and how it integrates with ERP solutions, Active Directory and custom applications alike.

02:30pm - 03:45pm  
Getting Coherence: Introduction to Data Grids

Randy Stafford
Grid-based infrastructures are being developed, deployed and used to achieve unlimited application scalability and continuous availability across multiple datacenters. Understanding the additional capabilities of these infrastructures and how they can be improved with the use of Data Grid technology to solve increasingly difficult and complex problems ensures that your organization is getting the maximum utility from Grid Computing.

This presentation focuses on how Oracle Coherence Data Grid can easily help you achieve all of these goals and more!

This presentation will address:

-- How Oracle Coherence capabilities function, such as coherent in-memory caching, dynamic data partitioning, and parallel query and process execution, and how they are being mapped onto grid infrastructures.

-- How Data Grid capabilities function, how organizations are using them to solve complex computing problems and examples of how organizations are leveraging this on a global scale.

-- How easy it is to deploy Oracle Coherence, which is generally operational within hours.

-- How Oracle Coherence is fully configurable, providing total flexibility to change caching topology without code changes.

This presentation is recommended for developers, development managers, and architects who are interested in data grid technology, providing them with a hands-on, in-depth review of all of Oracle Coherence Data Grid capabilities, a Coherence demo, and clarifying when and how each of the different caching options and features should be used.
