Practical Progress OpenEdge Database Internals
Gus Bjorklund - Progress Software
Dan Foreman - BravePoint
In this talk Gus Bjorklund and Dan Foreman looks at selected OpenEdge
database internals with a view to offering practical advice, knowledge, and
tips to a Progress DBA.
This talk is not just geeky insight into the workings of the database
(though it will have some of that). The goal is enhancing the DBA's
knowledge to optimize the DB and solve problems.
Example topics:
• Understanding create/toss limits
• Understanding records-per-block
• Using rfutil aimage scan verbose to understand and troubleshoot fast growing BI files
• Understanding the rules for BI cluster allocation and re-use and how to calculate how many clusters are actually in (or not in) use
• Why record deletes are typically expensive
• Understanding 'obscure' parameters such as pinshm, hash, etc. |

Stand Tall With UltraWinTree
Paul Guggenheim - Paul Guggenheim Associates
This presentation will show how to take advantage of the features of the Infragistics Ultrawintree object. This
object is particularly useful at representing recursive relationships such as bill of materials, item categorization,
organizational charts and family relationships. The attendee will learn how to take advantage of the features of the Ultrawintree so that they can optimally
represent these concepts in a business application. The appropriate methods will be covered in order for the
developer to add/remove nodes, perform functionality when a particular node is activated and expand and
condense the UltraWinTree. In addition, different options such as using data columns will be covered. |

After Imaging, The DBA's Best Friend
Tom Bascom - White Star Software
Modern computer systems and databases are incredibly reliable and the Progress OpenEdge database is the very best. But disaster can still strike when you least expect it. And usually when you can least afford it. If you're feeling safe and secure because you make a daily tape backup and send it off-site you shouldn't be! Nor should you believe that your mirrored disks are protecting you! This session will explain why after-imaging is not optional and explain just how easy it is to implement!.

OE Replication - Your Options Explored
Adam Backman - White Star Software
Now that you know the value of After Imaging, this presentation will show the options available for replication of your data. Replication can take several forms; OpenEdge Replication, log-based replication or hardware-based replication. There are cases where the costs of replication (licensing, maintenance and additional hardware capacity) outweigh the benefit. This presentation will help you understand the benefits and drawbacks of each different type of replication to help you make an informed decision on the best option for your business. Additionally, we will outline how to effectively setup, monitor and maintain your replication setup with an emphasis on OpenEdge Replication. |

Efficient Coding and Indexing
Dan Foreman - BravePoint
One of the top causes of poor application performance is poor indexing or not adequately understanding the Progress indexing rules.

Even if you have coded in Progress for several years, we guarantee there will be some new techniques for you. This session also covers efficient 4GL (ABL) coding techniques, logical scatter factor, index monitoring, how to find indexing problems in „inherited‰ code, application profiling, and more. |
