Sydney Oracle Meetup

Meet other Oracle professionals in Sydney! Seek solutions for the problems and challenges you are facing with database technologies. Learn what's new and exciting, what is going on in Oracle technology. Share your existing projects and any cool stuff you learned. Nibbles and drinks are currently provided by the SOM sponsors. This web-site should not be used for job postings and we want to keep sales pitches to the minimum. :)
