So there is some talent still left in Pakistan :) Some brains not yet drained out of Pakistan.

Engineers at PAC makes a copy of iPAD, called PACPAD, based on hardware components imported from China and Google's Android OS.

Well, its a good achievement... but... Why PAC is doing this? Don't they have any better things to do?

Many of my friends who come to UAE and ask me for advice, I tell them to be aware of FAKE RECRUITMENT COMPANIES. If you are planning for a job search in UAE, then read ahead...

Happy Birthday to me and Google...

We both celebrate it on 27th September each year...

Google every year wishes me with a new birthday doodle.

Thanks Google, for making my birthday so special every year.

I got it as a forwarded email from some of my friends. I found it worth sharing in my blogs... so here it is...

Ever wondered what 114.5 Trillion look like this puts it into perspective

ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS

Eid Mubarik EvErY OnE...

After attending the course on Oracle BI... I realize that its something very easy.

You don't need to be an Einstien to understand BI. Its just another way of modelling your databases, so that it can perform better for "ANALYSIS", instead of "TRANSACTIONS". Maybe you don't need all the investments to buy BI tools if you learn the art of modelling your OLTP data into OLAP models. (Maybe). But ofcourse... these tools do have some advantages as well.

Dubai Municipality nominated me for a 5 day Training course on Oracle Business Intellegence Training (Building Repositories). So far, I was planning to move deep inside Microsoft BI tools. However, this new course will boost my technical knowledgebase and will help me study and understand BI tools of to IT giants.

Fine days are over, and I am back to work after a short vacation of 2 weeks... Everything is same over here... Its really a great idea to escape for few weeks each year from your work schedule... Anyways, since I am back to work, so here in this blog, I will be talking about my work... Once again, I will be working for GIAFS, Fines Repository and PRISM.

Wow... I had a lovely time with my family and I tried to enjoy every bit and every byte of this time. Following are a recollection of some of my finest moments...

After passing MCTS in DB Dev, I am getting ready to dive in the sea of Business Intellegence. To start off, my first destination is to read cover-to-cover the book on Analysis Services. This is the first book that I have chosen in this series.

In the comments of this blog post, I will keep updated about my reading progress. (I am not shy to confess that I have been rusted over the years and its not an easy task for me to read a book).
