#OOW14 Sessions & Interests & Social

Here we go for another Oracle Open World. Lots of work to do before attending the conference. This year, I have a tight schedule than before. I have 2 sessions listed before and a podcast session with Bob Rhubart, and many sessions and social activities that I have picked or invited. I’ll be glad if I can make half of those. 🙂

Here are my sessions to speak for this year’s Oracle Open World.

Here is the session list that I would like to attend.
