CIO Business Breakfast in Warsaw, Poland

On March 6, 2018, at the Marriott hotel in Warsaw, we had the opportunity to host a selected group of CIOs from companies operating on the Polish market. The meeting was dedicated to optimizing the performance of database environments and the implementation of business data replication solutions for Oracle and Microsoft SQL databases.

The main issues we discussed during the sessions:

diagnostics, monitoring and implementation of changes from the database level as a continuous process of optimizing the performance of business systems,
the issue of business data replication between different versions of Oracle and Microsoft SQL databases,
the use of data replication for migration or upgrades of database versions.

During the meeting, our guests had the opportunity to see a live presentation of the DBPLUS Data Replicator solution in a production environment.

The Easy Way and the Hard Way to Optimize an Oracle Database

It may seem that the companies entangled in the web of Oracle and its ecosystem have a limited set of options when it comes to performance tuning. It’s either – pay for extra functionalities and navigate Oracle’s complex licensing, risking non-compliance penalties. This often leads to a conservative approach to optimization, stifling innovation due to the fear of overstepping licensing terms.

But do we always have to go the hard way?

There’s a much simpler route that doesn’t involve trembling with fear of clicking the wrong thing. That’s what we will be talking about today.

To Cloud or Not to Cloud: Pros and Cons of Cloud Databases

While big players have little to no choice but to go for the cloud, some businesses might weigh the choice between traditional on-premises setups and cloud solutions. On one hand scalability, flexibility, and cost savings that traditional databases struggle to match. The ability to scale resources up or down on demand, pay only for what you use, and offload maintenance and security tasks to experienced providers presents a compelling case for moving to the cloud.

On the other hand, traditional on-premises databases offer a level of control and security that some businesses are reluctant to use. The physical control over the database infrastructure can provide a sense of security, particularly for organizations with highly sensitive data or stringent regulatory compliance requirements. Additionally, for companies with stable data loads that don’t require frequent scaling, the initial investment in on-premises hardware might not seem as daunting.
