Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

Oracle's global conference rarely appears in the news, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it cannot compare with Nvidia's conference.

But in reality, the Oracle World Congress is much larger in scale.

The 2012 Oracle Global Conference began on September 30th in San Francisco.

Oracle booked four exhibition halls and ten hotel meeting spaces.

Two entire streets were sealed off and filled with tents used for eating and socializing.

The presence of 50,000 participants from 144 countries, the 4,000 speakers, and the 1,000 booths all demonstrate the appeal of this established company.

During this week, most of the chief information officers of Fortune 500 companies will be here.

This year's various sessions are dazzling, including JavaOne, OpenWorld, MySQL Connect, Customer Experience Summit, Partner Exchange Meeting, and closed-door sessions for CEOs and senior executives.

This year also saw some memorable moments, such as the unexpected appearance of James Gosling, the father of Java, at JavaOne. This was Gosling's first public appearance since Oracle acquired Sun, and he even went on stage to talk about the wave glider robot he wrote in Java, which brought tears to the eyes of many programmers.

Ellison also displayed his rebellious nature at this world-class summit.

He had the whimsical idea of ​​incorporating a music festival into a business summit.

During the day, everyone exchanges technical information, and at night you can watch performances.

There are six groups of performers every day, each consisting of one or two Grammy-level big names leading some underground bands.

The lineup is quite hardcore, featuring reggae legend and Jamaican national treasure Jimmy Cliff, and Swedish garage punk king Bees.

Wednesday evening, at a thank-you dinner held on Treasure Island.

Ellison even invited Pearl Jam, one of the Seattle Big Four, a representative group of the 1990s grunge movement with global album sales exceeding 60 million copies.

They also have a very unique achievement: they were the lead singers of the other three Seattle giants, Nirvana, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains.

Two committed suicide, one overdosed on drugs.

Only Pearl Sauce, who always sings very depressing grunge rock, lives a life much like a normal person.

25000 people attended the show, which is more than many formal concerts.

Lead singer Eddie Vidal said on stage, "We thought tonight we were performing in a guy named Larry's backyard, but it turns out his backyard is so big and he has so many friends."

Chen Yiran and Ellison listened from below and found it very interesting.

Of course, Chen Yiran didn't come here to listen to the songs; this lineup really didn't suit his taste. He came here to show his support.

The lawsuit between Oracle and Google regarding Java just went to trial in the San Francisco federal court in April, with Ellison and Larry Page both appearing in court to testify.

In May, a jury found Google guilty of infringing on Java copyright, but the verdict remained deadlocked on whether it was fair use or malicious use.

Ultimately, the judge ruled that the standard library of the Java language is not protected by copyright.

Oracle Bone Inscriptions, of course, could not let the matter rest and immediately filed an appeal.

At the same time, Oracle is going through a painful transition from traditional database licensing to cloud computing.

Global revenue growth has begun to stagnate.

On the hardware side, despite a 100% surge in revenue from all-in-one PCs, sales of x86 servers have plummeted, failing to reverse the downward trend.

The enterprise services business saw absolutely no growth.

The company's outrageous operating profit margin is entirely supported by the annual renewal fees paid by its long-term customers.

In the cloud analytics database, Oracle, Google, and Amazon are now locked in a fierce battle.

To help his friend, Chen Yiran first contacted Samsung and Xiaomi, asking them to negotiate with Oracle and pay a certain amount of Java licensing fees every year.

This fee is not much, but it can serve as strong evidence in subsequent court proceedings.

Other Android branches have already paid to acknowledge Java's rights, which puts Google in a very passive position.

Then, DeepFlow was used to make comprehensive optimizations for Oracle all-in-one machines, which made Oracle all-in-one machines even more different from those of other manufacturers.

After all, if Chen Yiran buys more all-in-one machines, he can get more of a share of the profits.

Now, he is preparing to give a brief glimpse into the future at this highly anticipated conference.

On Thursday, October 4th, the morning session concluded with a closing speech by Ellison.

The presentation title, "See More, Act Faster: Oracle Business Analytics," was displayed on the screen.

Basically, it's just flexing its muscles. Oracle's Exadata X3 all-in-one machine is a full-memory database with compression and parallel querying, coupled with Deepflow and load-aware query routing.

The performance is simply phenomenal. The database learns to predict which type of query runs fastest in which storage layer, dynamically migrating hot data between flash memory and DRAM, improving memory hit rate by more than ten percent.

Ellison directly displayed his company's performance data on the big screen, comparing it with Amazon RDS and Google BigQuery under similar loads.

They immediately switched to mocking their competitors.

Towards the end, Ellison asked Chen Yiran below, "So, this is the current capability of our all-in-one PC. Of course, I'm still not entirely satisfied. Chen, when can I finally use that specialized chip you mentioned?"

Chen Yiran laughed and shouted, "Next first quarter! You'll definitely be able to use it!"
