Redesigning Hyperion Planning - Is going from Block Storage (BSO) to Aggregat...finitsolutions
Oracle's Hyperion Planning is used by thousands of companies around the world for a wide variety of uses - from simple Budget / Plan and Forecast collection to deep predictive analytics. Business requirements commonly change over time which can necessitate a "redesign" of the Planning process and application. Oracle Hyperion Planning has also evolved over the years and opportunities have greatly expanded in terms of data storage, calculation engine, performance, and analytics. Join our webinar to find out how you can leverage these opportunities - whether it be part of a redesign of your existing Planning / Essbase Application or as part of a brand new roll-out.
In this webinar we will walk you through a real life case study of a Hyperion Planning application redesign. Our focus will include:
The challenges of a redesign
Metadata constraints
Performance issues
User experience
Administration
Design options explored
Aggregate Storage Option (ASO) vs Block Storage Option (BSO)

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
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.
