Oracle’s database agenda for AI World 2026 puts operational continuity, read latency and regional data controls at the center of its AI infrastructure pitch. From October 26–28, attendees can see availability and disaster-recovery tools, examine True Cache for AI inference and retrieval, and hear how NRI-CaaS supports transactions while keeping data in required regions. Two hands-on labs cover distributed applications and recovery, but attendees must bring laptops; one lab overlaps the True Cache session, and adding sessions to a personal schedule does not reserve a seat.
The database Hub is open October 26 from 11:00 AM–7:00 PM, October 27 from 8:00 AM–6:00 PM, and October 28 from 9:00 AM–2:00 PM PDT.
HOL6025 runs October 27 from 10:00–11:30 AM PDT, overlapping the 10:30 True Cache session, so attendees must choose between the lab and talk.
HOL6020 runs October 28 from 11:00 AM–12:30 PM PDT and covers recovery for AI workloads using Oracle Kubernetes Engine and Autonomous AI Database.
Oracle AI World runs October 25–28, 2026, at The Venetian Convention & Expo Center in Las Vegas. Its database team’s AI World Hub hours begin October 26 at 11:00 AM PDT. The program includes recovery exercises, sessions on faster database reads and a customer discussion of regional data placement.
Oracle’s October 8 mission-critical database preview brings together learning sessions, hands-on labs and an interactive demonstration of its availability and recovery tools. The Hub schedule is separate from the learning sessions: Monday’s first listed database talk starts at 8:15 AM PDT, before the Hub opens.
For attendees, Oracle says session seating is first come, first served. Adding a session to a personal schedule does not reserve a seat. A separate customer roundtable on October 25, from 4:00–5:30 PM PDT, requires an invitation, conference registration and separate session registration.
Oracle’s Maximum Availability Architecture is its framework of practices for high availability and disaster recovery. The Hub demonstration will show tools intended to reduce downtime and data loss, alongside Full Stack Disaster Recovery, which coordinates recovery across application components rather than treating the database alone.
A different operational question anchors the October 27 True Cache session, scheduled for 10:30–11:15 AM PDT. A cache keeps frequently requested data close to applications. Oracle describes True Cache as automatically synchronized with its database; the session will examine faster reads and semantic caching for AI inference and retrieval-augmented generation, which supplies retrieved information to an AI model.
At 11:45 AM that Tuesday, a customer session turns to data placement. Oracle says NRI-CaaS connects companies to the Catena-X automotive data-sharing ecosystem through four regional hubs, including Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud. Speakers will explain how it supports global transactions while keeping data in its required region.
Bring a laptop for either lab; Oracle will not provide one. Tuesday’s lab overlaps the True Cache learning session, so attendees will need to choose between the practical exercise and that talk.
Story updates
Oracle AI World 2026 runs October 25–28 in Las Vegas, and Oracle has published a dedicated agenda for sessions featuring its ACE technical community. In its October 8 preview, Oracle says more than 20 ACE speakers will participate. The ACE preview does not include a keynote start time, timezone or official watch link.
The announcement focuses on the people and sessions attendees can find at the conference. Oracle recognizes ACE members for their technical expertise and the knowledge they share with its community throughout the year. Their AI World program spans databases, cloud services, application development and enterprise applications, rather than concentrating on a single product.
The AI portion of the program moves from building agents to applying them inside businesses. Oracle identifies several questions its ACE speakers will explore, including how developers can use its database and application tools and how AI is affecting established enterprise work.
Building AI agents: sessions will explore developing and enhancing agents with Oracle AI Database and Database MCP.
Applying agents to business work: speakers will discuss agentic AI in enterprise processes, alongside changes involving AI and automation in finance and enterprise resource planning.
Developing applications: the program includes AI-powered applications built with Oracle APEX, as well as AI, automation and new technologies in application development and DevOps.
Beyond those AI topics, the ACE sessions cover Autonomous AI Database, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, analytics, data management, performance and migrations. Oracle says the sessions will include technical deep dives, practical demonstrations and lessons from real-world implementations. That gives the program several learning formats, not just a list of technologies.
Oracle’s dedicated ACE agenda is intended to help attendees discover sessions featuring community speakers and add them to their conference plans. The official agenda address supplied in the preview is https://events.rf.oracle.com/widget/oracle/oaiw26/1790607113758001pyv3. It is a session-planning resource, not a livestream link.
The community’s presence will extend beyond scheduled talks. Oracle says attendees can connect with ACE members at the Oracle ACE Lounge and elsewhere during the week. Ahead of the conference, it plans to share speaker teasers, recommendations and other highlights through ACE channels. Closer to the event, daily updates will identify speakers and community activities.
