RDBMS
Jonathan Lewis at his Oracle
Scratchpad blog discusses Rowids.
As always, valuable information and insight.
At Venzi's
Tech-Blog a rundown of Oracle

DBaas
Forbes has good
things to say about DBaaS: Why
Database As A Service (DBaaS) Will Be The Breakaway Technology of 2014.
Data Integration
Some good material here on GoldenGate and data
integration. A bit markety and salesish at the surface, but you can drill down to
some good resources: Oracle
Information InDepth Data Integration and Master Data Management Edition.
OEM
The Oracle
Enterprise Manager blog brings us the Oracle
Enterprise Manager Partner Plug-in News.

Coding Oracle
I don't think I've ever posted any links to The Groundside Blog by Duncan Mills.
Looks like a good place. This article connects to a previous one, both on Click
History - Access from Java.

...And Finally
From the Harvard Business Review comes this list of 10
Charts from 2013 That Changed the Way We Think. A few that are kind
of...meh...a few that are genuinely interesting.
And on the negative side of artificial intelligence is this
article from io9: Freakishly
realistic telemarketing robots are denying they're robots. The good news:
AI phonebots are approaching the point of passing the Turing test. The bad: AI
phonebots are a menace and the do not call list the government maintains
apparently is totally non-functional. That is at least judging from my lines
that continue to be bombarded with bogus advertising calls after several years
on the national do not call list.
Free courses – the app. There is an app available that
connects you with a wide variety of online free courses. I just discovered it
recently and can’t vouch for the overall results and quality, but there are
certainly some interesting looking items in here: Coursera.
Another interesting development in the realm of access to
tools is Scribd. It’s been around for many
years, but they have added a subscription service that gives you access to
thousands of books, along with all their huge collection of articles, for a
flat 8.99 a month. They are trying to become the Netflix of books, and I think
Amazon is going to sit up and take notice pretty quickly. Their collection of
books is scales of magnitude smaller than Amazon, but you can read as much as
you like for one price. Maybe Amaon should think of extending their Prime
borrowing books program to allow you to have X number of books out at a time
for Y amount of monthly payment. That way really voracious readers can keep a
steady flow of volumes loaded up without having to buy them and Amazon will
have a nice steady monthly subscription fee to use on building out their drone
fleet.
