Overview

This book offers the knowledge required for both those who build Oracle database applications, and those who administer the database.

It is critical that the DBA knows what the developers are trying to accomplish and the best developers know how to exploit the DBA's data management strategies. Armed with the fundamental knowledge of the Oracle environment that Tom describes, you will be able to build bigger, faster, and more scalable applications.

Knowledge of SQL and PL/SQL is assumed and familiarity with any 3GL language (such as C, Java, or Visual Basic) would be useful.

This book is for any relatively experienced Oracle developer who wants highly practical implementation details on Oracle features and functions. It might also be of interest to the DBA, however, this is not a book for people wanting to learn how to program the database.

    The Only Oracle Book You Will Need

    This book is one of the few places where you will find out 'how' to use the various features when developing using the Oracle database. Anyone who deals with the database needs to have read this book. It saved me days of work after reading the partitioning chapter. Tom Kyte imparts a lot of information in this big book: the best ways to use each feature, and the common errors that people make, and so on. It is a big book but if you want to make your job easier than it is definately worth reading this before your next project.
