OHUG announces Communities to replace SIGs and RUGs
OHUG
OHUG is excited to share that two of our board members, Sara Bragg and Peter deAndrade, have been working furiously over the past few months on our Community initiative to give more content and interaction to our members throughout the year. If you have participated in our SIGs or RUGs, you know that most of the activity was concentrated once a year during OHUG’s annual conference. Sara and Peter have come up with a new structure to facilitate greater opportunities for sharing and networking among OHUG members and partners.
We are pleased to announce the formation of four communities:
- HCM Cloud led by Carrie Hollack
- Taleo (includes TEE, TBE, & Learn) led by Patrick Foss
- PeopleSoft led by Bill Gibbard
- E-Business Suite led by Ajith Vijayan
You’ll find links to our new Community pages at ohug.org. We are expecting lots of growth in each Community, so keep on the lookout for webinars, regional meet ups, community calls on hot topics, success stories, and idea sharing.
Each of our Community leaders will be recruiting volunteers to help them lead the Community activities. Even if you have limited time, but would like to volunteer your expertise in any way, please reach out to one of the Community leaders or to Sara and Peter. OHUG needs your help to grow our Communities!

Safra Catz named sole Oracle CEO under Larry Ellison
Data Centre Dynamics
Safra Catz will "run" Oracle as the new chief executive, while still reporting to its founder, Larry Ellison.
"We have no plans for having a second CEO, it was an unusual situation," Ellison said of the co-CEO system. "Mark and Safra were a fantastic team, but we have complete confidence in our existing team."
In 2014 Larry Ellison stepped down as CEO, handing the reins over to Mark Hurd and Catz, who became co-CEOs under Ellison, who stayed on as executive chairman and CTO.
