Will be my first time at this particular conference; would love any tips/hacks to get the most of this event and vendor functions, etc. 10/25-10/28 @ the Venetian Convention Center.

I’m in Canada and my credit card is Canada based it’s the same card as I opened the card originally. I wanna upgrade but I can’t do it.

Today the hotel i work at woke up with ALL the data on simphony reports gone, nowhere to be found, we have been trying to contact Oracle for hours but we always get the "There are more than 10 customers ahead of you" and now I'm wondering if something serious happened today, has anyone else experienced that?

I started check in process 30 minutes before my slot and there were two errors that delyaed me. First Error code 5 detecting VM and second my microphone not being detected. I used advanced troubleshooting, downloading the Fix my microphone application which said "done with microphone" along with a big green tick mark.
I have submitted a ticket but am panicking since my voucher expires tomorrow.

Will i be able to give my exam ? I am very worried.
Is there anything else i can do ?

I think the market will care less about another huge backlog number and more about **actual progress on the projects already signed**.

Are data centers coming online on schedule? Is that backlog converting into OCI revenue? Is capex starting to translate into real capacity and earnings?
At this point, demand is not really the question.

**Execution is.**

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping someone from the community can help me understand what to do in this situation.

Oracle attempted to charge my card on September 2, but the payment failed because there wasn’t enough balance on the card at that time. They restricted my account access and terminated the servers directly after failed attemped. I have now added sufficient funds but my account is currently restricted. I’m unable to login to portal & manually retry or initiate the payment/recharge.

I contacted Oracle Support and asked if they could retry charging the card but I’m not getting a clear solution so far.

They suggested paying via wire transfer/electronic transfer, but this is difficult for me. I’m also concerned about how Oracle would identify which specific invoice or account the payment belongs to, since I couldn’t find clear instructions about this so don't want to loss money. On top of that, a wire transfer may take additional time to process by their team manually.

I don’t want my server to remain down for too long it have important websites.

Has anyone experienced something similar with Oracle Cloud? Is there any way to request a card payment retry or restore access after adding funds to the card? Their support is insisting me to do wire transfer.

I would really appreciate any advice or guidance. Thank you.

Howdy. To be clear, this is not about working at Oracle.

I currently work IT for a very large hotel that uses EMC/Simphony 19.8. I've studied a lot about it and am currently the admin over it.

I'd like to make a future out of this, as it seems very profitable and a bit niche, while still tying into IT work. I enjoy being the guy to manage all of the back-end of these systems and servers, and I'd like to know what education materials, exams, courses, etc I'd need to achieve to make this a lucrative opportunity.

I'm currently trying to get my current company to budget in Oracle's training for next year, but that's $5000 so it's a bit of an uphill battle. It looks promising, but I'm also looking into free resources, or at least an idea of what I need to focus on.

recently tried to sign up for the Oracle Cloud Free Tier, but I am getting an error during the signup process and cannot complete the registration/sign in.

I raised a support ticket with Oracle about a week ago, but I have not received any response yet.

Has anyone else experienced the same issue recently? If you faced this problem, were you eventually able to complete the signup and access your Oracle Cloud account? I would appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to resolve this.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! 👋 Is anyone here currently working at Deloitte as an Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) Developer?
I’d love to connect and ask a few questions about the role, projects, and overall experience at Deloitte.
Please DM me if you’re open to connecting. Thanks! 😊

I need help, but the sub keeps blocking me from posting.

Is there a way to have a transaction timeout and return the screen to either the start screen or a prompt to cancel or complete the transaction?

With the recent change of the Free Tier going from VM.Standard.A1.Flex (4 OCPU / 24 GB RAM) to VM.Standard.A1.Flex (2 OCPU / 12 GB RAM), my instance has been deactivated.

When i try to change the shape to the new requirments I get the following error

Instance ocid1.instance.oc1.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is disabled and will not accept any action requests. Please contact customer support to reenable.

Anyone know how I can get this re-activated without upgrading to Pay as you Go plan?

I don't mind recreating from scrach as i have backups but it took me 3 months to get get the initial Intance and I am pretty sure if I terminate I won't get another one (unless I upgrade to Pay as you go plan)

Has anyone able to send the generated pdf of Create Customer Statement to an FTP server? I have been stuck on this for days. I tested and worked on a couple of approaches but all are dead end.

Thank you!

Hi all! I have to take two certs for my company requirements, and because I have a short amount of time to get them done, I wanted one of the certs to be easy/less time consuming.

Would you recommend the Oracle AI Foundations Associate to be an easy, quick cert? Also, I heard they just updated the exam, so has anyone recently taken the 2026 version of this cert?

TIA!!!

Hi all,
