October 06, 2025

Oracle ACE Directors Share the Future of AI and Databases at Oracle AI World 

 
Viscosity North America, Inc. ("Viscosity"), a leading Oracle consulting firm, is excited to announce the release of an updated edition of the essential “Upgrading Oracle Databases: Oracle Database New Features” by three Oracle ACE Directors — Charles Kim, Gary Gordhamer, and Sean Scott. This refreshed and expanded resource delivers practical strategies for harnessing AI, optimizing performance, and securing Oracle environments in the modern enterprise. 

 

Upgrading-2025-Kindle 1To celebrate the release, Viscosity will host an exclusive Book Signing Event at the Quest Software Booth during the Hub Welcome Reception at Oracle AI World 2025, where attendees can meet the authors and take home a complimentary copy of the updated book. 

 

The new edition distills decades of consulting experience and fieldwork into actionable frameworks that IT leaders and DBAs can use immediately. Readers will gain: 

  • AI-driven insights to boost database performance and efficiency 
  • Best practices for risk management, cloud adoption, and automation 
  • Real-world lessons learned from enterprise-scale Oracle deployments 

“This book is about making the complex simple,” said Gary Gordhamer. “We’ve taken decades of lessons learned in the field and turned them into practical guidance DBAs and IT leaders can apply the very next day — whether tuning performance, securing environments, or planning for the future.”
