The event brought together Oracle professionals and enthusiasts for several days of workshops, presentations, and community networking. During the conference, I delivered a workshop titled ML/AI Meet Oracle Analytics where I explored how Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence integrate within Oracle Analytics to unlock deeper insights and smarter decision-making. I wanted the session to be practical and hands-on, showing how we can move from descriptive dashboards to predictive and even generative insights without ever leaving OAC. Oracle Analytics and AI — A Natural Partnership Over the past few years, Oracle Analytics has evolved far beyond being just a visualization tool . It’s now a platform that doesn’t just display data — it helps interpret it. Some of the key features addressing this area are:...

That’s why my presentation carried the title: Graphs – the Bridge Between Data and Generative Artificial Intelligence . It’s no secret that I built upon all the resources I could find on this topic. My primary re...
