I am so lucky that I made it to Zurich in time and can take part in this very special session at least.
Jonathan Lewis delivers a very highly condensed presentation in a two day event.
The first day, which I missed most of, what a pity!, was about INDEXING STRATEGIES.
Today he speakes about TROUBLE-SHOOTING and TUNING.

There are about 40 people attending.
Again Oracle Education chose this fantastic
ZURICH DEVELOPMENT CENTER as location for the event.
Jonathan made a very funny “demo of ORACLE 11g”
which he faked, and I believe most of us believed he already had access to the next release. Look at this, it’s Oracle 11g but it is faked , dont’t believe what you see here!
He “demonstrated” something he called HAL
(stands for Heuristic Algorythmic Linguistic:
=> sees what happened
=> worksout what to do next
=> tells you all about it)
and was “implemented” through a hint /*+go_faster*/
One lucky attendee won a huge model of the Oracle yacht which was taking part the last Americas Cup.

Every attendee got a copy of Jonthan Lewis’ latest book on the CBO.
