The meeting will be held February 10, 2011 at 6:30 PST.

I mentioned that Randy will be teaching us some useful info for both SQL and Oracle DBAs.  Here is the abstract for the presentation he will be giving.

In today’s enterprise environments, it is becoming increasingly necessary to integrate data from a variety of sources. As SQL Server continues its march into the enterprise, the days of focusing 100% on one platform are over. At a bare minimum, we need to be able to communicate with DBA’s for other platforms. Terminology as simple as Instance and Database mean very different things in Oracle than they do in SQL Server. In this session, we will compare and contrast the two platforms in terms of features and terminology. We will also discuss some of the best practices and pitfalls when integrating the two.
