Oracle provides middleware products that can help financial institutions with challenges like reducing costs, integrating systems, and providing a flexible platform for innovation. Oracle's strategy is to acquire and integrate best-of-breed solutions on a common technology platform. This allows customers to standardize on shared components while also customizing industry-specific applications. Case studies show how Oracle middleware has helped organizations like SWIFT, China UnionPay, and FXall scale their systems to support growth while maintaining performance and availability.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Key Trends Shaping the Future of Infrastructure.pdfCheryl Hung

Sr Director, Infrastructure Ecosystem, Arm.
The key trends across hardware, cloud and open-source; exploring how these areas are likely to mature and develop over the short and long-term, and then considering how organisations can position themselves to adapt and thrive.
3. The following is intended to outline our general product
direction. It is intended for information purposes only,
and may not be incorporated into any contract. It is not
a commitment to deliver any material, code, or
functionality, and should not be relied upon in making
purchasing decisions.
The development, release, and timing of any features
or functionality described for Oracle’s products remains

4. Oracle Background
Oracle’s Strategy and Vision is based on the view that the
only way to bring a wide range of domain specific software
capabilities to market is through:
1. Developing and acquiring the most complete set of “best of breed”
functional capabilities available from any one single vendor
2. Pre-integrating these “best of breed” solutions through process
based integration to reduce complexity and cost for the customer
3. Standardising and converging over time the “integrated best of
breed” solutions onto a common, open technology architecture
4. Building an ecosystem of system integrators to complement our
own capabilities for platform lead implementations
6. Challenges for IT Executives
Connecting with the CIO Agenda

delivering an effective service to the
business
• How can I leverage all existing enterprise data
to provide the business with accurate and
timely information for decision making and
regulatory compliance
• How can I provide seamless integration of
business processes across multiple
applications and platforms
• How can I secure and protect access to IT
assets across all channels from intruders, both
inside and outside the corporation
• How can I deliver new services more quickly
and efficiently

24. <Insert Picture Here>
Minor Huffman
CTO, FXall
“One of the important elements we
see with algorithmic trading is
looking for the ‘one in a million'
event. A solid CEP engine is very
efficient at doing that type of data
analysis”
25. The Solution
Oracle CEP provides real-time views
• Information from multiple sources non-intrusively
aggregated via log file adapters (jsch tails of application
logs)
– Every log entry from three different types of sources evaluated to
produce business relevant events
– jsch tails on the production servers generate very little load
• ~2000 messages/second, > 3 million messages/day
evaluated on matching criteria
• Concurrent business events detected
– Bad trades due to high-latency, off-market prices, threshold
violations
"We added a few boxes, but they were in our standard platform. We
were able to run on a very lightweight Unix infrastructure. We are
primarily a Linux shop and that was a key part of our decision
process,“ Minor Huffman, CTO of FXall
27. Oracle Fusion Middleware
• Oracle Fusion Middleware is the keystone for
innovation
• Oracle Fusion Middleware fully supports the trend for
flexible, open platforms
• There is significant untapped potential for PaaS in
Financial services
• Innovations around EDA and Platform Management
will drive adoption of the Cloud
