Blog roll update: Iggy Fernandez
Lately my blog roll updates have been pretty technical and many related to Exadata specifically, but today I bring you a different kind of blog! If you need to brush up on your SQL (or NoSQL) skills and then take them to the next level, you need to check out Iggy Fernandez's blog! My SQL/NoSQL skills are just fine, there is no reason I need to visit Iggy's page you say? Wrong you would be! Not on does his blog cover this subject, but he is an Oracle ACE, regular contributor with the NoCOUG, and author of the Beginning Oracle Database 11g Administration book. Do you really want to miss out on the posts of an experienced DBA about the subject of SQL or NoSQL? I would not if I were you!

Blog roll update: Andy Colvin
You may notice a trend lately with my blog roll updates, but if you enjoy getting information from Oracle ACEs, people working on Exadata, or working for a company like Enkitec, then you will enjoy following Andy Colvin's blog! Okay, maybe Andy is not updating it all that frequently right now but you can see a link to his Twitter stream which usually has gems every few days. If you are not on Twitter, you can still add the blog and then read up what he is sharing on Twitter every week or two in order to catch up with some great information.

Blog roll update: Martin Bach
Are you always looking for more information on Exadata or 12c? How about learning from an Oracle instructor on these subjects? If you answered yes to these, then you NEED to visit Martin Bach's blog! The best part of this is how much Martin references and links to documentation from a variety of different people on these subjects so you can read his blog and get involved with others in the community to learn even more as time goes on.
Bonus: I enjoyed the post here about wait events that are being introduced with new versions of the database, and makes me think about creating some documentation for myself to keep track of the "new" ones I encounter in the wild and those I am looking for!

Blog roll update: Weidong Zhou
Another great blog that you should be reading if you are interested in Exadata is Weidong Zhou's blog that is being added to my blog roll tonight. I had learned of Weidong via his Enkitec co-worker Carlos Sierra from a post shared on LinkedIn last year, and it looks like he has not stopped sharing great information with all of us as there are some really awesome tidbits which can fuel your fire a bit! Go take a gander, and share what you found new or interesting in the comments here!

Blog roll update: oradbn
Last week I added a new blog to my list and today I decided to find another new blog that has the kind of articles I'm looking for! While the oradbn blog from Benedikt Nahlovsky might only have a handful of posts from the last two years they are goldmines for being able to monitor the database in new and interesting ways, finding out more on ORA errors that can be encountered on new database versions, and getting 12c installed and running. There are some great ideas here that I can use at work to implement some new monitoring but also is an outside perspective with how to handle things in a completely different way.

Blog roll update: ASM Support Guy
It has been quite a while since I had a blog roll update, but there are several new blogs that I have squirreled away for later and I hope to catch up with them over the next few months and share the really great ones with you! Even though Bane Radulovic might not have a huge volume of posts over the last year or two, his ASM Support Guy blog has a LOT of information about ASM (duh) but also quite a bit of information about ASM in relation to the Exadata platform. How much do you know about ASM, or ASM with Exadata? Could you always learn more? I know I can, so I am going to add this to my blog roll and apply some things learned from Bane and give you an update on what I have learned in future blog posts.

Blog roll update for August
Having a bit of free time at the OAUG conference this week has given me time to catch up on a few new blogs that I'll be adding to my blog roll and I want to share them with you!
http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/ - Good updates on things Hyperion, very through articles with images that help
https://blogs.oracle.com/jobsatoracle/ - No I'm not looking to leave, but I think it is interesting that Oracle provides this blog (which hasn't been updated in a while) that promises a look into "what it is like to work at Oracle" and I don't think there are a lot of people that WOULDN'T like to know how Oracle does what they do.
http://nigelnoble.wordpress.com/ - A performance related blog that has only had a few updates over the past few years, but with the author starting to post in the last few weeks hopefully he'll keep up on blogging and add more to the conversation.
http://jamesmorle.wordpress.com/ - Well this is the address I ran across to read later, but it redirected me to http://www.scaleabilities.co.uk today and James has his blog at http://www.scaleabilities.co.uk/author/morlej/ now. I'm going to add it to my blog roll since performance and hardware issues that he talks about really seem to coincide with what I'm looking to do, and we'll see if that page will update when he puts up a new post.
https://blogs.oracle.com/fadevrel/ - An often updated Fusion Application blog for Developers that has lots of information, plus they even have their own YouTube channel for their tutorial videos http://www.youtube.com/FADeveloperRelations
http://www.munzandmore.com/blog - Really good articles on SOA, which makes sense with him being a published author on WebLogic, so I feel like I'll be learning some very interesting kernels.
https://blogs.oracle.com/oem/ - I can say that I'm a bit overwhelmed by how much information is here, maybe especially since we don't use OEM on our team, but I think that I'll be able to pick up things here or there in an overall sense.
https://blogs.oracle.com/support/ - We had the pleasure of having Chris and some of his cohorts from Oracle visit us, and I really haven't had a chance to read his blog until now yet I can tell that customer support is a real passion of his since his blog comes off exactly like he is in the classroom.
http://www.antognini.ch/blog/ - A performance related blog so it's pretty much an automatic add. :}
https://blogs.oracle.com/GetProactive/ - From my standpoint, this is exactly the type of blog I need to be reading! I think when I go back through these blogs digging up things over the past year for those all to important nuggets of information, this blog will likely be a large part of getting some good articles!
www.oraclenerd.com - I'm not sure how I stumbled on this site, but I'm going to stick with it! Seems like a very straightforward and lighthearted take on Oracle issues, which does have that occasional nugget of information or just something to get you thinking another way on an issue.
http://richardfoote.wordpress.com - Filling this under the Jonathan Lewis or Tom Kyte file since it's heady stuff that I probably won't understand much of right now, but boy when I do.....watch out! Just some of the recent 12c posts are enough to make my head spin.
http://connormcdonald.wordpress.com - Okay this one might get filed into the same spot as Richard's blog above is, but it does look very interesting and fact filled with examples too!
http://fritshoogland.wordpress.com - Wow I had a big run of really smart people that I found huh? With Frits dealing with Exadata a bit, I have to follow him and I've seen some good stuff from him recently that puts him on the top shelf.
https://blogs.oracle.com/opscenter - This blog was deceiving since I thought it was an "operations center" type of blog, but it's actually a blog for the Oracle product Ops Center which disappointed me until I realized that we might a. be able to use it or b. not know what it is and in that case I'm going to hang around for a bit and go through the documentation later when I get time to sit down and comprehend it.
https://blogs.oracle.com/reynolds/ - For a good blog on SOA and Fusion Middleware, it'll be hard to beat this blog!
http://ocprep.blogspot.com/ - A solid certification blog, with a dash of career advice thrown in too.
http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/ - Good updates on things Hyperion, very through articles with images that help

Over the past few weeks/months I've collected some new blogs to add to the site.

I'll just have to catch his updates via their official blog, or rearrange what I'm doing at a later time.
