Todd Little, Chief Architect Oracle Autonomous Blockchain Cloud Service. I’m currently the Chief Architect for the the Oracle Autonomous Blockchain Cloud Service (OABCS) that was released in June 2018. OABCS is an enterprise permissioned blockchain based upon Hyperledger Fabric. As an autonomous service, Oracle takes responsibility for most of the lifecycle operations such as patching, upgrades, backups, etc. My focus is on performance and security. I also sit on the Hyperledger Performance and Scale Working Group and Hyperledger Privacy and Confidentiality Working Groups. I’m also the Chief Architect for the Oracle Tuxedo product family. I’m responsible for defining the technical strategy and direction for the Tuxedo product family, including Oracle Tuxedo, Oracle Tuxedo Jolt, Oracle Tuxedo System and Application Monitor, Oracle Services Architecture Leveraging Tuxedo, Oracle Tuxedo Mainframe Adapter, Oracle Tuxedo Message Queue, and Oracle Message Queue. Prior to being acquired by Oracle, I was Chief Architect for BEA Tuxedo at BEA Systems, Inc. While at BEA Systems, I was responsible for defining the technical strategy and direction for the Tuxedo product family. I developed the Tuxedo Control for WebLogic Workshop that greatly simplified the usage of Tuxedo services from Workshop based applications. I also received two patents for methods allowing design patterns in a UML modeling tool to control the generation of software artifacts. During my more than 40 years of software architecture and development experience, I have worked on a wide range of software systems and technology. At Science Applications International I worked on microcoded plasma display systems and command, control, and communication systems for naval applications. As a senior software consultant at Digital Equipment Corporation, I was the New York Area Regional Tools Consultant and also helped develop a multi-language multi-threaded distributed object oriented runtime environment with concurrent garbage collection.
