Database vendors are putting in tremendous effort to reduce the complexity of database environments. However in the world of multi-tiered architectures, application servers, web technologies, storage, clustering, virtualization, Grid management, EPM, MDM as well as the constant growth in databases and performance challenges their is going to be complexity.

    The Trubix Blog is focused on discussions on strategic directions in database technology and the challenges Oracle technologists are addressing today and in the future. This site will focus on issues and challenges of database management that cannot be resolved with a code snippet. There are already a lot of great websites out there with tons of code samples. We would like to facilitate more discussions on issues Oracle technologists are dealing with today that a quick search on the Internet cannot solve. There will also be a group of recognized industry leaders that will also participate in this blog. This blog is an extension of the Tim Tam Group, an international group of industry leaders that meet once a year to discuss strategic directions in the industry.
