Oracle Hospitality Open Forum 

Oracle Hospitality Open Forum hosted within Slack is an inclusive platform designed to bring together individuals who share a passion for our industry. This vibrant community aims to foster collaboration, knowledge sharing, and networking opportunities, allowing members to connect, learn, and grow together.

The decision to create this open community was driven by several important reasons:
  • Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing: By launching this open forum, we aim to encourage collaboration and knowledge sharing among Vendors, SIs, and Oracle Hospitality. It provides a dedicated space for members to ask questions, seek advice, and engage in thought-provoking discussions, leading to mutual growth and learning.

  • Networking and Relationship Building: The Slack open community offers a platform for individuals to network and form valuable connections. This enables the establishment of relationships that can potentially lead to partnerships, mentorships, and career opportunities.

  • Inclusivity and Diversity: The open community promotes inclusivity and diversity by bringing together individuals from various backgrounds and experiences. It fosters the exchange of diverse perspectives and creates an environment of understanding and empathy.

  • Maturity of the OHIP Platform and a growing number of enabled platform components.

To facilitate effective communication and organization, we have structured the open community as follows:

Channels

  1. 01_announcements: This channel (managed by Oracle Hospitality) is used to share insightful updates on our products, maintenance, and important reminders with the partner community.

  2. 02_open_forum: The open forum channel enables partners, SIs, and other community members to interact directly with each other. Oracle will moderate this channel, and we kindly request all participants to adhere to etiquette rules to maintain a collaborative approach.
