For all the talk of the risks to your data there are a few basic things you need to create a good working recovery plan. First, you need to focus on recovery and then you need to know who to include in the process, what you need to protect, the potential risk of each possible disaster and how much each disaster may cost your business. By determining the value of the data and the the cost to replace it if it is at all possible, you can build the correct size and cost recovery plan for your unique circumstances. This talk will focus on the business planning portion of recovery planning. While there will be discussion of specific technology components of the plan the focus will be on the who, what where, when and why of recovery planning.
You’ve migrated to bigger stronger faster and more expensive hardware but your OpenEdge environment is running slower. How is that even possible? In this session, we will look at some real-life case scenarios where performance results were actually worse on the new machine than the older one, how we tested and what corrections were needed in order to achieve better performance. Also, things to look out for when purchasing new hardware or migrating to the cloud.
Buying hardware is hard enough without vendors trying to fool you into buying something that is not right for your workload. Many vendors, Dell, IBM, HP, … will try to move you into systems with many CPU cores but all configurations are not the same. Shared memory RDBMS systems like Progress OpenEdge perform well in Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) environments but cannot perform as well in non-uniform memory access (NUMA) environments.
OpenEdge Replication is a great product that does exactly what it’s supposed to do, but there are plenty of important details that you cannot learn by reading the manual. Come to this session to learn best practices and all the sneaky little tricks and tips you’ll need to successfully deploy, monitor and maintain OE Replication.
ProTop is a powerful tool that should be in every OpenEdge expert’s arsenal. As a developer, DBA or OpenEdge support professional, you need actionable insight into real time database and application activity. The free ProTop database monitor sorts, filters and groups realtime VST data into insightful analysis screens that help you debug complex issues and optimize the performance of your databases and application.
Through examples and real customer case studies, this session will show you how individual enterprises and partners with dozens of clients leverage ProTop to ensure unparalleled performance and up-time of their OpenEdge environments.
You’ll learn how ProTop is vastly more than a collection of simple alerting scripts.
We’ll also show you the benefits of our web portal: with a quick glance at a single web page, we monitor the health of hundreds of databases around the world and immediately know that they are in good shape.
