Hotsos Symposium 2010

Join the world's top Oracle performance analysts at the eighth annual Hotsos Symposium, the conference dedicated to issues of Oracle system performance. The Symposium will be held March 7–11, 2010 in Dallas, TX.
"I absolutely loved this year's
conference! Probably the best
event of them all."
— Tanel Põder
Why Is the Hotsos Symposium Different?
Hotsos Symposium is the only conference in the Americas devoted to Oracle system performance. The combination of topic focus, small audience size, and large speaker list make the Hotsos Symposium an unsurpassed networking opportunity.
Hotsos Symposium features presenters who take great care to show you how to determine the difference between reliable information and bad advice around Oracle performance optimization.
