We will be in Birmingham for UKOUG (biggest conference on Europe for Oracle) conference with Luis Marques presenting the following talk:

Oracle Linux Ksplice – Keep your Database systems up to date with no downtime 

Keeping your critical systems secured and up to date without reducing availability is not straightforward. In this session you will learn how you can apply many critical patches on your Linux kernel with no downtime and this will be demonstrated live. We will mainly explore the techniques used by KSplice to perform hot kernel updates.
We will also review the current limitations and which alternatives exist on the market.

This topic is important for people who want to keep their Linux systems secured and up to date without disrupting the business. In the past year very big security issues have been discovered (Shellshock,Poodle,…) and this is very important to protect your system especially for highly critical system like Electrical Management systems.
