OUGN- Yes, I Get to be Julie the Cruise Director!

Tim and I leave for Oslo on Monday for the OUGN, (Oracle User Group Norway) conference.  This is a great conference that many of my friends have talked about for the last couple years and I finally let Oyvind talk me into going.  The conference is on a cruise ship that leaves from Oslo and sails for three days.

We’ll be quite busy-  Tim and I will be doing a keynote, “Assumptions, Killer of First Dates and Databases Everywhere”, then I’ll be presenting “DBaaS in a DBAs World” and “Master EM12c Monitoring”.  I will also have the opportunity to host my first European WIT round table, which I’m looking forward to.  I’ve had the opportunity to discuss WIT issues with men and women from Europe in the last year, so I’m really excited about talking about the initiatives they are taking on in Europe and the challenges still to be addressed.

So, hide your vikings, I’m on my way to the great North and sorry Canada, not you this time… 🙂
