Overview

One of the most popular business database-management systems on the market, ORACLE is a powerhouse, offering many advantages both in terms of installation and capability. It runs on all hardware platforms and is excellent for large-scale business applications. This is the first book to address the specific needs of database administrators and managers who use this powerful DBMS. It was designed to provide DBAs and DBMs with a quick fix and all the skills they need for a rock solid foundation on which to build a quality ORACLE database management system. Offering detailed explanations of more than 150 figures, practical SQL, SQL* PLUS, and PL/SQL, it provides both novices and experienced DBAs and DBMs with a ready-made tool set for ORACLE management. It includes hands-on tips and techniques for ORACLE administration and management for both novices and old hands alike and more than 50 helpful SQL scripts. Plus, it offers insights and "in-the-trenches" case studies from a number of experienced DBAs. Next to the ORACLE documentation itself, ORACLE 7.0 Administration and Management will prove to be absolutely the most important book in every DBA's or DBM's professional library.
