Review of Oracle API Management 12c
22 Monday Feb 2016
Posted in Book Reviews, Books, General, Oracle, Packt, Technology
My review of the Oracle API Management 12c has been published the the UKOUG at http://www.ukoug.org/what-we-offer/news/review-of-oracle-api-management-12c-implementation/ – rather than repeat the review here, I’d recommed people go read the page. But I will say here is that it is an excellent book. The book can be found at:

Following my recent blog about Single Pane of Glass & OEM I came across an article which illustrates using the OEM packs to monitor Qualogy; article on OEM. In addition to this article you can get more material about setting up OEM from the YouTube Oracle Learning Library (OLL) here (in addition to the resources on the Oracle OTN site – here).
Packt also have a book on OEM here, which until the end of December 2015 is also available for only $5 (£4).
I’ve been thinking about working on some material to show how you can use OEM to monitor non Oracle resources.

I have just been told that the 2nd Edition of Java EE Development with Eclipse has now been published. This is another book that I have supported as a technical reviewer. Looking forward to receiving my print copy so I can see how my suggestions and feedback have carried through to the final copy.
You can see the book on the Packt site with https://www.packtpub.com/application-development/java-ee-development-eclipse-second-edition or Amazon here
Here is the finished article!

It seems to becoming the done thing to license the use of the ‘For Dummies’ brand and publishing books (or are they large booklets) on a specific subject. These can then often be picked up as print freebies at conferences. I saw a couple at the Oracle Cloud Event today – though I’d share the ebook versions here:
- Database Storage for Dummies
- SaaS for Dummies
- In Memory Data Grids for Dummies
- Enterprise Mobility for Dummies
- Server Consolidation for Dummies
- LTFS for Dummies
- Modern HR for Dummies
- Social Recruiting for Dummies
- Enterprise Cloud Infrastructure for Dummies
- Server Virtualization for Dummies
- Enterprise Computing with Oracle Solaris for Dummies

Packt Publishing have been running a scheme where each day they give away a book. Today is the Business Analyst’s Guide to Oracle Hyperion Interactive Reporting 11.
Packt Java EE with Eclipse 2nd Edition
19 Wednesday Aug 2015
Posted in Book Reviews, Books, Packt
Might be a little early for Packt, but I have completed reviewing the 2nd Edition of Java EE with Eclipse for Packt now. So the book should be available in the next couple of months.
On the subject of Packt, the Free Learning scheme they are running continues. I’ve seen a couple of books repair since the start of the promotion. But for main part each day is new and different and covers a wide range of things from JQuery and Node, to Hadoop and into Drupal and WordPress. So worth checking back on a daily basis.
All of this means time to do some more Oracle writing.

Designers must understand user needs to create any product. But what type of data should you look at?While we’ve all heard about big data, talk of “thick” data remains scant. Generally speaking, big data is quantitative; it gives you the what, where, and when, while thick data provides the qualitative perspective—the how and the why.
Pamela Pavliscak, founder of design research firm Change Sciences, says you need all the data—both big and thick—to fully understand how users interact with websites, apps, and other products. In her new report, Data-Informed Product Design, she outlines a way to use data of all kinds to understand the relationship between people and technology.
Up until now, there hasn’t been much information on how to combine quantitative big data with qualitative thick data. That’s where this report can help. If you’re involved in any aspect of product design, this is indispensable reading. It’s useful, and we’re pleased to offer it to you, for free!
