Oracle Integration: Connecting to Autonomous Database OOTB using Adapters

Oracle Integration Cloud comes with a library of adapters for both Oracle and 3rd Party applications. All of these capabilities mean that it’s possible to integrate applications faster and increase business agility. I've been writing a lot lately on the topic of Oracle Autonomous Database and also presenting about Oracle Integration Cloud, so I thought, why not merge the 2 subjects and document here how you might go about using the Oracle Integration out-of-the-box adapters to integrate to an Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) or Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADW) instance (both Oracle Autonomous Database - ADB - offerings). In this post I will describe how to use the Oracle Autonomous Database adapter in Oracle Integration Cloud to directly connect to an ATP or ADW instance.

Oracle PL/SQL: GROUP BY

I recently wrote, HERE, how I regularly see commonly asked questions appearing in forums relating to the same topic. Like with SELECT INTO from my previous posts, I also see lots of questions about the correct usage of the GROUP BY clause and so I figured that I would write up an explanation of how to properly use this and then, again, I can reference this post's URL in response to questions on this topic!

Oracle PL/SQL: SELECT INTO

Like many in the Oracle community, I occasionally find myself looking through forums and helping out where I can. I consistently see some basic questions cropping up in forums like StackOverflow, often the same question over and over again - one of which is regarding the "SELECT INTO" statement. I have found myself writing responses to questions about SELECT INTO statements many times and so I figured that I would write up an explanation of how to properly use this and then I can reference this post's URL in response to questions on this topic! Side note: It's been quite some time that I used PL/SQL and really enjoyed spinning up an oracle database in my free tier account and writing this post - perhaps expect a few more similar style posts alongside my usual content (maybe more commonly asked forum topics)

5P’s of Presenting

A short post on a different topic to my normal posts. I was archiving some documents on my laptop and came across a short presentation deck I had made during a presenting course. I am writing this information here in a blog post so that I can always easily refer back to it and so that I can share the information with others!
