Smart Database Architecture for Software Development


We are incredibly excited to announce that the amazing Toon Koppelaars from Oracle Real World Performance Team is hosting our next webinar: Smart Database Architecture for Software Development. Register at this link.


About the Webinar

 Is the database a processing engine or a persistence layer? In this presentation we'll first go through a bit of history demonstrating how the database has been used in the past 30 years: at times it was a processing engine, and at other times it was just a persistence layer. 

 Having witnessed many application development projects, we are convinced that the database ought to be used as a processing engine. The persistence layer approach, where all business logic is implemented outside the database has serious drawbacks in the areas of initial application development, ongoing maintenance, and most notably in the area of performance and scalability. 

 We'll discuss these drawbacks, in particular the last one: We'll debunk once and for all that moving business logic out of the database benefits performance and scalability.

About the Presenter

Toon has been part of the Oracle eco-system since 1987. He is currently a member of Oracle's Real World Performance Team. The RWP-team troubleshoots application performance issues in and around the Oracle Database. The way applications currently use (or rather, abuse) the DBMS, is often at the root of these performance issues. Prior to joining the RWP team, Toon has been mainly involved in database application development. His special interests are: architecting applications for performance and scalability, database design, and business rules / constraints modeling. He is a long-time champion of using the database in a smart way, i.e. using the database as a processing engine.

Using Git with PL/SQL in a Shared Development Database

  With Gitora 6 , developers can work on the same code base (i.e. a package, procedure etc…) in the same database without blocking each other. Many development teams use a single database for development. Many of them use the same database for testing, as well. They achieve this by using different schemas for different purposes. Gitora 6 enables these teams to create Git repos for these schemas and pull updates between them. With Gitora 6, you can even create a different schema for every developer and have them merge their code using Git. Gitora 6 enables you to implement any modern development workflow in a single database. How does Gitora 6 work? Gitora 6 introduces a new repo type called   Single Schema Repo (SSR) . As its name suggests an SSR manages database objects from a single schema. The DDL scripts in SSR’s don’t contain the schema prefixes so that Gitora can execute them in other schemas in the same database. This enables developers to work on the same package, procedure, fu

PL/SQL Editor with AI Assistant

Image
Introducing Gitora PL/SQL AI Assistant. It suggests PL/SQL code in real-time right from the Gitora Editor. This was one of the MOST INTERESTING features I've ever worked on. The first iteration is a small step in the right direction. But the possibilities are ENDLESS. I'd truly appreciate it if you could try it out and provide feedback so that I can improve it. Ideas to where to apply AI next are most welcome. You can download the editor from this link: https://www.gitora.com/plsql_editor.html
