Certifications for "Appliances" & more Big Data certifications Please

It seems Oracle is committing towards appliances . . . database appliance, big data appliance, Exadata and Exalytics In-Memory Machine.
Will there be a shift in certification to match?
For example there is a appliance certification out there already . . . the Exadata certification . . . so extending this idea there could (or should be) certifications related to how to support the other appliances
I would like to see a certification related to Big Data . . . how about a NoSQL certification?

I would like to see a certification related to Big Data . . . how about a NoSQL certification?On the certification website there is a Oracle Certified Database Cloud Administrator track published ( http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=458&get_params=p_track_id:CLOUDOCP) .... (some relevant exams in beta (exadata) or just about to go beta ) ... There is Oracle Cloud Application Foundation Certified Implementation Specialist ... the 12c DBA OCP Database upgrade exam (from 11g DBA OCP) is present but not bookable on Pearson VUE (last time I looked) ... waiting for 12c Database release (should be soon).
There's some matching things on the systems side too: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=632 (see under systems).
If I goto the 'big data' technology home page on OTN (http://www.oracle.com/us/technologies/big-data/index.html) ... and quite frankly its the first time I've been there as far as I remember, I see a lot of technologies brought togther ... some are (relatively) old , some seem relatively new. Some have associated certifications already ... some do not ... and I suspect some never will (not everything has to have a certication).
When a technology is in its infancy the developers, champions and first users will be getting to grips with it, learning it, developing it, learning how to appy it. When this has matured enough the expertise will also have developed enough to take stock and produce a certification.
I am also aware Oracle are aware of the ability of a certification to incentivise candiates (and oracle partners) to get onto evaluating or adopting a particular technology or new features (overall this probably benefits both sides ... but it can mean a certification may be slightly skewed towards new features or aspects Oracle wishes to promote ... especially for OCS).

  • Help me in date comparision Please !!! urgent.

    Hi ,
    I am trying to retrieve some entries from a table for a selected date.
    Here is the quest I am running .
    SELECT C.idnumber,A.fullname, A.description FROM Contact C, Action A WHERE TO_CHAR(c_date,'mm/dd/yyyy')='02/16/2009' AND C.actioncode = A.code ;
    This statement is correct . But the abouve query is not using the index which defined on c_date as it is enclosed with TO_CHAR .
    Can any one tell me how can I alter the above query such that it use the index & gives me data for a user selected date.
    Please share if you have any ideas & help me out to sort the issue.
    -Meena

    A DATE column does not have a format-- it is stored in the same packed binary format. Date format masks are only important when you go to convert a date to a string for display.
    If you want to ignore the time component of the date, you would need to TRUNC your date, i.e.
    SELECT C.idnumber,A.fullname, A.description
      FROM Contact C,
           Action A
    WHERE TRUNC(c_date) = to_date('02/16/2009', 'mm/dd/yyyy')
       AND C.actioncode = A.code ;Of course, this will prevent Oracle from using an index on C_DATE. The solution to this is to create a function-based index on TRUNC( c_date ), i.e.
    CREATE INDEX idx_trunc_cdate
      ON contact ( TRUNC( c_date ) );Oracle would then be able to use the new index IDX_TRUNC_CDATE for your query. If all your queries want to ignore the time component, you may want to evaluate whether you can get rid of the index on C_DATE alone.

  • Architect certification for beginners

    Hi Guys,
    I want to have a proper TCP(technical career path) for next 5 years. I have experience of 5 years in Java and oracle technologies. Now I am looking for a promising career path- in architect field. I am new to this area. I have done all technical kind of work till date. Now moving to next level will require a lot of study and effort, but I want to put my efforts on a proper certification.
    Could you please suggest me few certifications for beginner in technical architect field?
    Thanks,
    Jas

    Hi, welcome to the forum!
    There is one Java Architect certification, but it is not a beginner level certification:
    It is the Oracle Certified Master, Java EE 5 Enterprise Architect certification: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=458&get_params=p_track_id:JEE5EA
    One idea is to study and take the Java EE Developer certifications first, get enough experience and then later go to the Java EE Architect certification, or go straight to it. The latter approach will take more time, but may be more related to what you want.

  • How can we suggest a new DBA OCE certification for very large databases?

    How can we suggest a new DBA OCE certification for very large databases?
    What web site, or what phone number can we call to suggest creating a VLDB OCE certification.
    The largest databases that I have ever worked with barely over 1 Trillion Bytes.
    Some people told me that the results of being a DBA totally change when you have a VERY LARGE DATABASE.
    I could guess that maybe some of the following topics of how to configure might be on it,
    * Partitioning
    * parallel
    * bigger block size - DSS vs OLTP
    * etc
    Where could I send in a recommendation?
    Thanks Roger

    I wish there were some details about the OCE data warehousing.
    Look at the topics for 1Z0-515. Assume that the 'lightweight' topics will go (like Best Practices) and that there will be more technical topics added.

  • Most useful (and difficult too) certification -for developer

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement that - i need to recommend to my management about a very useful certification - one that marks a quite high level of skill too. and this is for Development track -not on DBA track. The release is at least Oracle 10g . Which one would fit this need? They flatly tell me that ocp is just so easy and they want to find a better one.
    Is Oracle expert on Pl/sql the one that is best choice based on this need? (we don't use oracle application developer so , while I know there is a certificaiton there, it is not relevant to us).
    thanks

  • Source for oracle 9i Forms developer certification

    Hi,
    Someone told me that oracle 10g & 11 g are mainly for those interested in database administration. But, since i am interested in developers certification i want to go for oracle 9i forms developer certification ( I want to have knowledge about Forms, reports etc)
    Can we learn it without any tutions ??
    If yes, can you please specify websites or book names??
    Thanks & regards

    Hi,
    Someone told me that oracle 10g & 11 g are mainly for those interested in database administration. Wrong.
    I could write an essay, but some of my views are:
    I am sure the Oracle would regard databases Oracle 10g and Oracle 11g as later versions of the Oracle Database that are generally upwards compatible with 9i but also with newer and better features.
    Because there are significant(ish) adminstration differences in these database versions there is emphasis of these database administration certifications.
    On the developer size yes PL/SQL has also improved, but the requirement for a newer certifiaction exam (at OCP level) was perhaps not quite so pressing:
    This seems to be addressed version of the pl/sql exam, 1z0-144 (in beta), but from history even after 1z0-144 is fully released most forums vistors will go for 1z0-147 rather than 1z0-144 (see 1z0-007 versus 1z0-051 posts).
    Also note that newer tools versions may not be closely coupled to newer database versions.
    But, since i am interested in developers certification i want to go for oracle 9i forms developer certification ( I want to have knowledge about Forms, reports etc)
    I suspect from a developers point of view oracle 9i forms developer is so similar to oracle 10g forms developer there is not much need/demand for a oracle 10g forms developer certification. (I would expect more emphasis to be put on producing an application express certifiaction anyway)
    Can we learn it without any tutions ??
    Not impossible but hard.
    Oracle Recommended course woudl be: [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getlppage?page_id=212&path=FMDT]
    If yes, can you please specify websites or book names??
    - And courses:
    - Oracle have some self study CDROMs : [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getSearchResults?p_output_style=T&p_search_category_id=1278&p_search_format=2]
    - There may be some fair/good courses arround. In india I think, butt am not sure, sql_star are an authorised partner and give forms training. Beware of unauthorised training.
    - In terms of books
    There are probably more bad forms books than good ones, and most are going out of print (consider second hand). Some sites like amazon have reviews.
    - Websites:
    - If you see or are given any websites at a miinimum check the URL through [http://www.certguard.com]
    - The one site I know of is [http://www.iselfschooling.com]. Its not got a RED at certguard, and its not got a full green either. Theres a few lessons you can get for free. For learning forms definitely no problems. If going straight for a certification then may be bad. But I believe its more training orientated than dump orientated and I believe their using original materials (if anyone knows different please let me know and certguard know and I'm have for this post to be edited or deleted).

    To reinforce what was mentioned in the first response...
    There is no "urgent" in these forums and your statement that everyone must jump to your request just because you say so is rude.
    You have been a viewer of these user-to-user OTN forums for more than a year. That is far long enough to know better.
    For the future, whenever you have a critical business need for information, you will need to use your support credentials and log a SR ro Oracle Technical Support. Be prepared each time to prove to them that such a need exists.

    But I am willing to accept this is a perhaps a small set of positives; and thier may be no point for many.
    I really don't like the fact that anyone wanting an Oracle (Enterprise Edition) SQL certification (without PL/SQL) has to go for SQL OCE. An earlier certification would be better.
    I generally like the CIW Database Design Specialist: (Exam 1D0-541) content .....
    I would certainly modify my earlier idea of 1z0-047 having as a pre-requisite an earlier SQL exam / certification as a pre-req ....
    And would certainly have 1z0-051 or CIW Database Design Specialist: (Exam 1D0-541) on the pre-req list ...
    ( There are precedents for non-oracle exams/certs being acceptable in lieu of an oracle exam .... eg LPIC-1 for 1z0-402 )
    ( There is however IMHO no precedent for an OCE exam having another exam as a precedent ).
    .... Apologies to original poster .... I may have sidetracked your orginal question with a slight debate.

  • Performance Tuning Certification for Application Developer

    Hi,
    Can you please advise if there is any Oracle Performance Tuning certification for an Application Developer and Oracle 9i to 10G migration certification? If yes, can you please let me know its Oracle examination number?
    I have already passed 1Z0-007 and 1Z0-147 in Oct 2008.
    Thanks in advance,

    ... if there is any Oracle Performance Tuning certification for an Application Developer ...There is no performance tuning related certification for application developers. There is one for the DBA track.
    Also -- to answer your question in the other thread:
    So to clear this certification do I need to re-appear all the 3 exams as they were given in 2008 or just 1Z0-146 is enough.Having passed 1Z0-007 and 1Z0-147, if you pass 1Z0-046, you will gain the certification: Oracle Advanced PL/SQL Developer Certified Professional
