Blabla free post: This is just some of my (personal) top Oracle sessions I will have the chance to attend Next Week. Some of you may agree that there is no way to make a list that fits everyone but for those who are into OCI and database migrations/upgrades this list might help, especially if you haven’t had the time to browse the 3 days Agenda :). Why not spare you some time so you can triple check your packs and confirm you’re all set for the trip ;).
Njoy! and Good luck to my ACE friends  (Rene, Simo, Franck)
