Highlights & Impact

On November 13, 2025, DOUG brought together Oracle professionals, enthusiasts and rising talent at the Grapevine Convention Center for a full-day in-person event packed with learning, networking and expert insights.

The event kicked off with registration, breakfast and booth visits, followed by sessions across various verticals. We offered:

• Multiple tracks spanning database, applications, development, performance, security, GenAI and multi-cloud.
• Keynote sessions from Oracle and Tessell.
• Sessions from renowned speakers including multiple Oracle ACEs.
• A dedicated environment to learn, eat and network—plus swags for attendees.

Through our social channels the hashtag #DOUGTrainingDay2025 captured the energy – posts shared guest excitement, sponsors’ support and the “what an incredible event” vibe.
