Rollback Contexts 25m
When we manage records in audited tables, for every change, a rollback context is created by default. This also happens to deletions in non-audited tables. Rollback contexts generate a bit overhead in the instance and, if not configured properly, this can lead to poor performance and even downtime of the instance. In this talk you will learn how to configure rollback contexts so that the impact is minimised.

Self-guided visit of the new CERN Science Gateway 31/3-004 - IT Amphitheatre
The new CERN Science Gateway is CERN’s new flagship centre for science education and outreach.
It will be officially inaugurated on 7 October and open to the public as of 8 October. The CERN Science Gateway will allow to receive many more visitors than CERN is able to welcome today, but it will also allow us to expand education and outreach activities, reach new audiences from 5 years old and upwards, engage more with the local population, attract the young generation to careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and forge new links with science education and outreach centres in the Member States and beyond.
We will take all interested participants to the Science Gateway and leave them there. Exhibitions close at 5pm and are self-service.
