Technologist of the year, DBA (2011) accolade

Hello everyone,

I totally agree that I was a bit off-colored at my blog of late which is largely due to various factors, like, I was busy attending training, writing exams (mostly ITIL) and kept myself super cool during the entire holy month of Ramadan.Now, I am back on track, expect a lot of buzz and noise from me.

Well, I have got a piece of good news to share with you all on my blog. I am honored with the 'Technologist of the year, DBA' award from the Oracle Magazine Editors choice award (2011) unit members considering all my previous contributions to the Oracle community and my achievements in the Oracle technology, .

Indeed it is a huge honor and pleasure to receive such topmost accolade for my work and I genuinely felt that Oracle has sincerely acknowledge my achievements by giving the most prestigious award. I am thankful to the almighty, my parents and all my folks who kept encouraging me all the way through of my life.

Hopefully I will make it to the upcoming Oracle Open World conference, and what more excites me is  the thought of seeing/meeting with many other fellow Oracle experts/gurus in-person. I can't hide my excitement and emotion on this special moment.

Look forward seeing you in SF.

Best Regards,

Jaffer
