After the initial euphoria of new product release goes down hard realities of
- Future upgrades of existing implementation
- Training for existing support and maintenance teams
- Big learning curve for system integrators and architects doing new implementation
- No proven/ available implementations or methodologies or bench marks
- Resource crunch of people who can implement and develop in 11G
Off course there are specialists like FishBowl and Bezzotech who I think were part of early adaptors program and can help you with new implementations and quick turnarounds, but I doubt if they can keep pace with sales and marketing folks from Oracle who some how manage to sell more and more.
I have not yet downloaded 11G it is a big package looks like they have bundled all the components in together.
Since the package is big some one should tell Oracle to set up a download manger using with folks can control the pace of their downloads.

thanks for talking about Fishbowl's 11g readiness assessment!
11g has some impressive performance upgrades and the WLS platform opens up new avenues of integration and scalability.
There are some hoops to jump through, however, to get there. I hope that the ECM community can collaborate to come up with some best practices soon.
Hi Billy,
I think pure play UCM independent vendors should take lead in building best practices, as they are already off the blocks.

Thank you for sharing with useful, good review. It needs to know that automated testing will protect software solutions from unexpected expenses.
