Life and Times of The Data Warrior

Please join me on March 30th at 11AM CDT for my first official post-retirement talk!

I will be chatting with Mike Lampa from Great Data Minds about my career and plans post-Snowflake. I expect we will cover a wide range of topics including what community and technical evangelism is all about, as well as what made me jump from nearly 30 years in the Oracle world to a small startup with less than 100 people that claimed to have re-invented data warehousing in the cloud.

You can register here for this free event.

See you then!

New Snowflake Community Advocate Program

I am happy to announce that The Snowflake Community—a hub for Snowflake users to connect, share, and learn from each other both offline and online—is launching a new program called the Select Star Program.

What is a Select Star?

The Select Star program recognizes and rewards our most engaged community members who go above and beyond to help other users around the globe. The program offers many opportunities, including speaking at meetups or during webinars, publishing technical tutorials and blog posts, answering questions on Stack Overflow, and sharing your own Snowflake story with the community. The more you engage and offer support, the more award points you’ll earn. Once you’ve collected 1,000 points, we’ll officially accept you into the Select Star program.

Cio for now.

Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler 17.4

So for your last technical task of the year, as Heli recommends, go get the latest version of Oracle SQL Dev Data Modeler. Looks like a bunch of important fixes (including some “annoying behavior”).

Cheers!

This is a version I have been waiting: so many important bug fixes! I downloaded it immediatelly the evening it was available and finished one of my projects using it.

If you have not downloaded it yet, do it today: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/datamodeler/downloads/index.html

Why did I waited for it? Because of, for instance, these bug fixes:

27245333 – IMPORT OF DDL AS ORACLE 12CR2 DOESN’T RECOGNIZE DATA TYPES
27182476 – SQL SERVER 2012 DDL GENERATION FAILS WITH CLASS CAST EXCEPTION
26985782 – STANDARD REPORT – COLUMN DATA TYPE IS NOT INCLUDED WHEN COLLECTION
27040952 – DESIGN PROPERTIES DIALOG DOESN’T WORK
26988362 – IMPORTING LEGACY PHYSICAL MODEL RESULTS IN TABLE ITEMS LISTED RED IN HIERARCHY
27041167 – REVERSE CLAUSE FOR INDEX IS NOT PROCESSED DURING IMPORT FROM DATABASE
26918584 – SYNC TO DB CANNOT RECOGNIZE TABLES WHEN PROXY USER IS USED
26919656 – PROBLEMS WHEN EDITING UDP FOR ATTRIBUTES IN ENTITY DIALOG
26750611…
