Since our formation in 2001, Blue Gecko has attracted some of the best Oracle talent in the world.  We are regularly invited to speak at such recognized events as Oracle OpenWorld, Collaborate, and many regional Oracle user group conferences such as Western Washington Oracle User Group Northern California Oracle User Group, and Rocky Mountain Oracle User Group.  Our Oracle DBAs are active members and organizers of regional Oracle user groups, such as the Northwest Oracle Users Group, Puget Sound Oracle Users Group, and Western Washington Oracle Users group.

We strive to maintain a high level of technical ability, and actively share that knowledge with the Oracle community through our speaking engagements, published works, and web content including our white papers, technical blog, and free resources like our collection of SQL scripts.
