I realize that it’s been an incredibly long time since I’ve last posted here, but I have a plethora of reasons – and no, it’s not because an AI agent has taken over my job.
- Helping run events for the Analytics and Data Oracle User Community (AnDOUC), including my latest role as User Community Organizer, has taken quite a bit of time since our major event, Summit 2025, last April. I’m responsible for a majority of the production of their monthly TechCast episodes. (Shameless promotion: If you like Oracle technology and like presenting on it virtually, consider submitting a virtual session.)
- I’ve traveled to several Oracle User Group events this past year as well, including nlOUG in the Netherlands and various other smaller events in the USA. In fact, I’m off to Vancouver, BC this Friday to keynote on the state of Generative and Agentic AI in our industry, so if you’re nearby, please consider coming to hear what I’ve got to report.
- And finally, I’ve been working closely with The Futurum Group and their Tech Field Day events team to expand my portfolio as an expert in the field of data engineering and possibly even get recognized as an influencer in this space. (Hey, if it’s on a badge, it must be true, right?)
I promise to keep up with blog posts in the future – keep an eye out for an upcoming lengthy article on my exploration of the latest features of Qlik Answers in just a few weeks!
