Editorial Review Product Description The Oracle database is one of the most popular in the world, and for good reason. It's compatible, scalable, portable, and capable of performing incredibly fast. The advantages Oracle holds over its competition come with a price, however--it's a highly complex database that's becoming more complex with every release. And this level of detail, of course, can begin to weigh on database administrators (DBAs). Fortunately, the Oracle DBA Pocket Guide from O'Reilly is on the case. This handy reference is designed to help administrators make more effective use of their time by presenting a compact summary of DBA tasks in an easy-to-use form.With this book by your side, you'll have instant access to the most important concepts, best practices, tips, and checklists.Key topics include architecture, installation, configuration, tuning, and backup/recovery.Everything that you absolutely must know to do your job well is right there at your fingertips. Moreover, the Oracle DBA Pocket Guide covers Oracle Database 9i, as well as its latest release, Oracle Database 10g.The first database designed for enterprising grid computing, Oracle Database 10g significantly reduces the cost of managing the IT environment with a simplified install, reduced configuration and management requirements, and automatic performance diagnosis and SQL tuning. The latest in O'Reilly's line of bestselling Oracle titles, this book is an invaluable companion for any database administrator--new or experienced--interested in reviewing core Oracle concepts at a glance.

Editorial Review Product Description — Thomas Kyte, VP (Public Sector), Oracle Corporation The question, "Why isn't Oracle using my index?" must be one of the most popular (or perhaps unpopular) questions ever asked on the Oracle help forums. You've picked exactly the right columns, you've got them in the ideal order, you've computed statistics, you've checked for null columns&emdash;and the optimizer flatly refuses to use your index unless you hint it. What could possibly be going wrong? If you've suffered the frustration of watching the optimizer do something completely bizarre when the best execution plan is totally obvious, or spent hours or days trying to make the optimizer do what you want it to do, then this is the book you need. You'll come to know how the optimizer "thinks," understand why it makes mistakes, and recognize the data patterns that make it go awry. With this information at your fingertips, you will save an enormous amount of time on designing and trouble-shooting your SQL. The cost-based optimizer is simply a piece of code that contains a model of how Oracle databases work. By applying this model to the statistics about your data, the optimizer tries to efficiently convert your query into an executable plan. Unfortunately, the model can't be perfect, your statistics can't be perfect, and the resulting execution plan may be far from perfect. In Cost-Based Oracle Fundamentals, the first book in a series of three, Jonathan Lewis&emdash;one of the foremost authorities in this field&emdash;describes the most commonly used parts of the model, what the optimizer does with your statistics, and why things go wrong. With this information, you'll be in a position to fix entire problem areas, not just single SQL statements, by adjusting the model or creating more truthful statistics. Customer Reviews (27)

Editorial Review Product Description Solving or planning for performance issues is a core part of the database professional's toolkit. The Oracle database is very flexible, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Consequently, it is highly tunable, presenting a bewildering set of choices to the inexperienced. Tuning Oracle is as much about approach as about understanding the technology. It is more than tweaking parameters or following a set prescription&emdash;it involves matching application-specific knowledge with what's happening inside the database. Based on author Christopher Lawson's long experience working with Oracle, The Art and Science of Oracle Performance Tuning book uses a five-step model to help identify and isolate the cause of nonperformance. This book shows you how to approach problems, get the information you need from Oracle, and follow the process through to success. Customer Reviews (12)

Editorial Review Product Description Oracle Application Express is an easy-to-use application development environment built on the Oracle technology stack. There are two aspects of that previous sentence that you may find jarring—that Oracle, a company widely known for its database technology, has an application development environment, and that Oracle, a company thought of as delivering high-end, enterprise-ready technology, has anything that is easy to use. But, as this book will show, the introductory statement is completely accurate. Oracle Application Express, commonly known as Oracle APEX or simply APEX, does benefit from the long-established enterprise-class robustness that is the hallmark of Oracle technology. The applications you build will be able to support hundreds of users and many terabytes of data, scalability far beyond even the imagination of most other development environments. And Oracle APEX, with its declarative, wizard-driven methodology, is truly easy to use. In the course of the few hundred pages of this book, you will not only learn about how to use APEX, you will create a usable order entry system. The fast learning curve presented in these pages is a consequence of many years of development and refinement of the APEX product, which began life almost a decade ago within Oracle. By the end of this volume, you will know enough to create your own applications, as well as having the knowledge and understanding of Oracle APEX and the world of Oracle technology to explore further refinements on your own. Best of all, you can use APEX with absolutely no cost—either in a hosted environment, as suggested in Chapter 1, or with a free version of the Oracle database. Welcome to the world of Oracle Application Express! This book is aimed at a particular group of users—those who are not familiar with Oracle Application Express. The book assumes that you have a basic knowledge of application development, the type you could get from playing around with a personal database such as Access. In fact, this book was written with an Access developer in mind—an Access developer looking to step up to a more scalable and reliable environment, with reduced maintenance overhead and greater integration between application systems. This book covers the use of Oracle Application Express. Although the book is based on the 3.5 version, you can use the book with older versions as well. However, since the book will use a hosted version of Oracle Application Express, and since both the Oracle database that support the product and the product itself are available as free downloads from http://otn.oracle.com, you should be able to use the latest version easily. This book is structured to give the reader a gradual introduction to the essentials of development with Oracle Application Express. The book contains the following:

Great technical reference, bad political humor......
A great technical PL/SQL reference When I first started looking at the CD, I wondered how I would best make use of this reference.I tried reading it on my monitor, starting on the first page and continuing on from there, but after awhile I realized that wasn't going to work.I then started playing with the text searching capabilities provided on the CD.What I found is that O'Reilly has done a very nice job of first indexing and then implementing electronic searches.I am now using the CD exclusively as a reference via this search.Although I didn't know it then, I now believe that is the best way to use the reference if you have some prior knowledge of PL/SQL.I now keep the CD at work, consulting it whenever I need to refresh my memory on how best to write PL/SQL.If you have no prior experience with PL/SQL or you don't like reading books on-line, consider just purchasing the soft-cover components of the bookshelf.However, if you are like me and have some experience in the area, this bookshelf is an indispensable part of the Oracle reference library. One last thought.Although the bookshelf is great, I do have a problem with it.The collection is dated.The CD covers PL/SQL through to version 8.0 of the Oracle RDBMS.A soft-cover book, included in the distribution but not on the CD, includes new features provided with Oracle 8i.That leaves a sizable hole in that PL/SQL features introduced with Oracle 9i are not discussed.I suspect that even as I write this Steve Feuerstein et. al. are hard at work filling that void.In the meantime this collection is the best PL/SQL reference for Oracle 8i.
Technical side: 5+ stars; Political side: 0 or less Con: Mr. Feuerstein should leave politics out of the book. He has the right to hold any political view, which by the way I don't subscribe to, but this was supposed to be a technical text that should help readers all over the world, not only those in Berkley who vote left wing. Next time he better stick to the usual, neutral and actually more useful, examples.
Generally a very useful book I agree with another reviewers comment that more should have been done with Java.Perhaps, Java rates a book of its own. I hope Mr. Feuerstein will produce a similar book for Oracle9i.
Technically excellent!AND a well rounded person |
