Oracle just announced a competition for Oracle developers around the world: The Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer Challenge. See http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/developer-tools/fusion-middleware-developer-challenge/index.html for the details of this challenge.

Basically, all developers are invited to develop an application in one of three catagories:

  • SOA-based applications or Web services
  • Web 2.0/Ajax-based user interfaces or mashups
  • Java-based applications demonstrating the combined use of Oracle and Open Source software

This sounds like a good challenge to have a go at the next couple of months!


The Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer Challenge
will be opened up on 10/23/2006. Submissions will be accepted until
12/31/2006. During Q1 of 2007 the submissions are evaluated
innovation, architecture and business value, and the finalists and winners determined.

Containers for Java (OC4J) 10g, Oracle Application Server 10g, Oracle
Database 10g or Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Oracle TopLink,
Oracle ADF, Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle BPEL Process Manager, Oracle
Portal.

Suggested tools for writing an application in the open source

  1. It is too bad you can’t participate, Lucas: You have to be over 18 and a legal resident of the US or Canada.

OOW2K6 - Newbie impressions...

It's amazing how much Lucas already put to "paper", despite all the mishaps we already encountered. The last two days I lost track on Lucas because he has completely different interests / agenda, and of course he also has to prepare for his sessions as a speaker.Anyway here's my input to all the great posts on the web already done (have a look at http://www.orablogs.com for most of them). As pointed out a time ago, my main interest is XML DB. Beside those sessions, I will also pinpoint some on performance, Oracle Content Directory and Open Source speeches, like those on Linux and PHP (future directions). These are old interests with whom I try to keep up, but can't spend so much time on as in the past, because XML DB forces me to read and learn about stuff I put aside me a long time ago, or in other words neglected, for instance object (orientated) relational objects.As a newbie (so I am fitting the profile) on this conference, I already missed apparently some important keynotes, but reading the posts of others today, I also realized that this makes my life a little bit easier, because it is now out in the open and I can address them, to a certain point, by name (11g).See the following: http://www.internetnews.com/ent-news/article.php/3639621 http://www.rittman.net/2006/10/23/oracle-open-world-days-12-database-roadmaps/I will try to make my impressions, as a newbie, a little bit more colorful (pictures!), because I really enjoyed the posts made by my colleague Alex, on one of the last ODTUG meetings in the States where he spoke and attended...
