Two books worth looking forward to and other

recently came out 2 Oracle books, read the introduction, reference some evaluation, and read the demo chapter, feel good, worthy of recommendation.





's first book is:





effective Oracle by-design





by Thomas Kyte





paperback:688 pages; Dimensions (in inches): 1.70


Publisher:mcgraw-hill Osborne Media;


isbn:0072230657








This book is the work of a famous Oracle technology expert, Tom. Tom's last Masterpiece (Oracle expert advanced programming expert one-on-one) has been highly praised by readers and has a good reputation. As opposed to expert one-on-one, this book is about the "This is what I thought you should do" instead of "this is and is works", which is the main content of expert one-on-one.





this effective Oracle by-design publishing there are some small twists and falls, was originally Tom talked about is Wrox publishing house, did not think that the days of accidents, Wrox the parent company went bankrupt, Tom had to find another buyer.





now the book is available under Osborne's packaging. Unfortunately, compared to the original version in Wrox to be published, a lot less things, let people feel sorry. Originally, Tom said to open the first expert one-on-one electronic version, now seems to be a distant future.





can find the first three chapters of this book on the internet, good or bad, read and know.

second is O ' Reilly's product:





Optimizing Oracle Performance





by Cary v. Millsap, Jeff Holt





paperback:304 pages


publisher:o ' Reilly & Associates; (September 2003)


isbn:059600527x





the author of this book is not a generic one, even Thomas Kyte said the author of the book "has two brushes." The first chapter of the book can be downloaded at the publisher's site. "A better way to optimize", at the outset, the first proposed "a better way to optimize", which is different from the general optimization of the book's significant signs. After reading full of anticipation.





has not had a chance to see quickly, first look at O ' Reilly's description of the book:





Oracle DBAs and developers are all too familiar with the outlay of time and resources, blown budgets, missed deadlines, an D marginally effective performance fiddling that are commonplace with traditional methods of Oracle performance tuning. In this crucial book, Cary Millsap, former VP of Oracle ' s System performance Group, clearly and concisely Use Oracle ' s response time statistics to diagnose and repair performance problems. Cary also shows how "queueing theory" can is applied to response time statistics to predict the impact of upgrades and oth ER system changes.





Optimizing Oracle Performance eliminates time-consuming, trial-and-error guesswork inherent in most Approaches to tuning. You can determine exactly where a system ' s performance problem are, and with equal importance, where it isn't, in just a f EW Minutes--even If the problem is several years old.





Optimizing Oracle performance cuts a path through the complexity of current tuning methods, and streamlines a approach th At focuses on optimization techniques so any DBA can use quickly and successfully to make Noticeable--even Dramatic--imp Rovements.





For example, the one thing database users care most about are response time. Naturally, DBAs focus is much of the their time and effort towards improving time. But It is entirely too easy to spend hundreds the hours to improve important system metrics such as hit ratios, average lat Encies, and wait times, only to find users are unable to perceive the difference. And an expensive hardware upgrade could not help either.





It doesn ' t have to being that way. Technological advances have added impact, efficiency, measurability, predictive capacity, reliability, Speed,and Practica Lity to the Journal of Oracle performance optimization. Optimizing Oracle Performance shows you-slash the frustration and expense associated with unraveling the true root Cause of any type of performance problem, and reliably predict future.








Grumble:
.




Domestic book channel is too not smooth, whenever I see some good books and can not get, in the mind are very unhappy.





Some publishers keep their eyes fixed on which uml/c# and the like, and miss a lot of such good books. No longer is fried celebrities, with the help of some famous translators, readers really want the book is often not easy to get.





of course, there are some photocopies of books now, but in my opinion, the photocopy of the book is almost all the leftovers, when can a little fresh? It practitioners in the country want something faster and "more tasteful" than after an ER workshop.





we can only wait.
