The new year has started and one of the most important Oracle performance conferences is about to start. The Hotsos 2008 Symposium will be held again, almost traditionally now, in Las Colinas, Dallas, Texas. This year 3 AMIS colleagues, Gerwin, Patrick and I, will be attending this performance dedicated hotspot, from the second until the sixt of March. This years keynote speaker is Cary Millsap himself and I guess that I will really enjoy Thomas Kyte’s training day.
