O'Reilly Releases Oracle PL/SQL Programming Guide to Oracle8i Features and Oracle SAP Administration
SEBASTOPOL, CA--Steven Feuerstein, author of the well-received Oracle
PL/SQL series, has done it again. He has written a book designed to
bring developers up to speed as quickly as possible on the new PL/SQL
features of Oracle8i.
Following the style of Feuerstein's earlier books,
Oracle PL/SQL
Programming Guide to Oracle8i Features combines easy-to-understand
descriptions of the new Oracle8i features with a wealth of interesting
and informative examples. It covers autonomous transactions, invoker
rights, native dynamic SQL, bulk binds and collects, system-level
database triggers, new built-in packages, fine-grained access control,
calling Java methods from within PL/SQL, and much more.
PL/SQL developers will be able to take advantage of all the power of
Java without giving up the performance and usability perks of PL/SQL.
Oracle PL/SQL
Programming Guide to Oracle8i offers enough Java know-how
to build simple Java classes, load them into the Oracle8i database, and
leverage those classes from within the PL/SQL code.
Another recently released Oracle title,
Oracle SAP
Administration, focuses on the intersection of the SAP business
system and the Oracle database management system. This book is designed for
the experienced Oracle database administrator, system administrator, and
developer who is using either Oracle8 or Oracle7.
Oracle SAP
Administration covers the most useful administration tools,
SAPDBA and SAPGUI. It provides recommendations for the most efficient
placement of data files; monitoring databases; reorganizing tables,
tablespaces, and indexes; backing up and recovering databases; and
tuning Oracle/SAP databases for best performance. There are chapters on
special issues for parallel processing and for very large SAP
databases, and a summary of additional resources for the Oracle/SAP
administrator.
