I has been quite some time since I posted anything on my blog. That is mainly because I am busy with other things at the moment:

I will be presenting at the OGh Apex Event in Zeist (the Netherlands). I will be doing a presentation on how to build a plug-in for Apex, together with Alex Nuijten.

 

AMIS will be sponsoring the SQL Challenge in April. I have made a couple of questions for that. Lucas Jellema also made a couple of questions and we are now in the process of reviewing and approving them.

I will be doing two presentations at KScope12.

Should Invoker Rights Be Used?

How can you ensure users use only their data and not someone else’s? How can you do this with minimal effort? How can you get rid of multiple codebases. How can you (partially) protect yourself against SQL Injection? Explore these questions and more in this informative session.

 

 

And

Can Collections Speed Up Your PL/SQL?

When: Wednesday June 27, Session 12, 8:30 am – 9:30 am
