Oracle Sues Google Over Android

under

On Aug 12 Oracle filed a complaint against Google for patent and copyright infringement.

The topic came up in discussion at last night's RJUG social at the Capital Ale House. (Thanks all for attending & thanks once again to UDig and Fahernheight for sponsoring. It was a great time and many interesting conversations went on, maybe we should do this more often...)

Here's the quote "In developing Android, Google knowingly, directly and repeatedly infringed Oracle's Java-related intellectual property."

Oracle Gathering of East Coast User Group Leads -July 20, Reston, VA

under

Oracle invited the leaders of the East Coast Oracle technology user groups to a meeting on Tuesday July 20th in Reston, VA.

I attended the all-day meeting and met up with the NOVA and NY JUG leaders.

With the acquisition Sun completed Oracle is making strides to incorporate the Java user groups into their product, tool and technology user groups.  We (JUGs) pressed Oracle to provide more information regarding the roadmap of the Java technology stack.

If you have areas of concern or questions please contact me.

Polyglot persistence is all about considering your persistence requirements and selecting a persistence mechanism that best mets those requirements, as opposed to selecting an RDBMS as the default choice.

We'll look at some of the persistence alternatives that are available like Amazon SimpleDB, CouchDB, Google Bigtable, and more.
