This remains the defining book on the older 8i Oracle database if you are a developer or DBA who works with Oracle-driven database applications. You will encounter wisdom on designing, developing, and administering these applications from one of the world’s foremost Oracle experts, Thomas Kyte.
The book covers every important feature and function of the 8i version of Oracle, and it is unique in the technical depth and insight that it provides on each topic. This book will show you how to expertly program with the database and exploit its feature set effectively. The result: you will build fast, effective, scalable, and secure Oracle applications.
From the Publisher
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 text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
