Book DescriptionOracle is an enormous system, with myriad technologies, options, and releases. Most users-even experienced developers and database administrators-find it difficult to get a handle on the full scope of the Oracle database. And, as each new Oracle version is released, users find themselves under increasing pressure to learn about a whole range of new technologies. The latest challenge is Oracle Database 11g. This book distills an enormous amount of information about Oracle into a compact, easy-to-read volume filled with focused text, illustrations, and helpful hints. It contains chapters on:
The latest Oracle Database 11g features: query result set caching, Automatic Memory Management, the Real Application Testing, Advanced Compression, Total Recall, and Active Data Guard Option Options, changes to the OLAP Option (transparently accessed and managed as materialized views), the Flashback transaction command, transparent data encryption, the Support Workbench (and diagnosability infrastructure), and partitioning enhancements (including interval and new composite types) For new Oracle users, DBAs, developers, and managers, Oracle Essentials provides an invaluable, all-in-one introduction to the full range of Oracle features and technologies, including the just-released Oracle Database 11g features. But even if you already have a library full of Oracle documentation, you’ll find that this compact book is the one you turn to, again and again, as your one-stop, truly essential reference. “Oracle Essentials gives a clear explanation of the key database concepts and architecture underlying the Oracle database. It’s a great reference for anyone doing development or management of Oracle databases.” Table of Contents Appendix A. What’s New in This Book for Oracle Database 11g Book Details

Book DescriptionPL/SQL, Oracle’s programming language for stored procedures, delivers a world of possibilities for your database programs. PL/SQL supplements the standard relational database language, SQL, with a wide range of procedural features, including loops, IF-THEN statements, advanced data structures, and rich transactional control–all closely integrated with the Oracle database server. Knowing where to start with Oracle’s procedural language is not always obvious to a newcomer, especially considering the language’s feature set and the sheer size of the official documentation (not to mention Oracle’s ever-increasing number of pre-built PL/SQL programs). But Learning Oracle PL/SQL offers the signposts and guidance you need to come up to speed on the language, delivered in a manageable number of pages while covering all the essentials. Topics include:
Meticulously crafted with all-new examples downloadable from examples.oreilly.com/learnoracle, the book addresses language features available in all versions of Oracle, from Oracle7 to Oracle8i to Oracle9i. Learning Oracle PL/SQL was written by PL/SQL experts Bill Pribyl and Steven Feuerstein, whose easy-to-read style and attention to detail has made other O’Reilly books (such as the bestselling Oracle PL/SQL Programming) very popular among Oracle developers worldwide. Learning Oracle PL/SQL is meant for a wide range of target audiences, including both beginning programmers and those already experienced with other programming languages. Whether you are a new developer, a crossover programmer from another database system, or a new database administrator who needs to learn PL/SQL, this book will get you well on your way. It is the perfect introduction to Oracle PL/SQL Programming, also by Pribyl and Feuerstein. Table of Contents Book Details

Book DescriptionHowever excellent they are, most computer books are inherently passive–readers simply take in text without having any opportunity to react to it. The Oracle PL/SQL Developer’s Workbook is a different kind of animal! It’s designed to engage you actively, to get you solving programming problems immediately, and to help you apply what you’ve learned about PL/SQL–and in the process deepen your knowledge of the language. By tackling the exercises in this workbook, you’ll find yourself moving more rapidly along the learning curve to join the growing ranks of PL/SQL experts. The Oracle PL/SQL Developer’s Workbook is a companion to Steven Feuerstein’s bestselling Oracle PL/SQL Programming and his other PL/SQL books from O’Reilly. It contains a carefully constructed set of problems and solutions that will test your language skills and help you become a better developer–both with PL/SQL and with other languages. Exercises are provided at three levels: beginner, intermediate, and expert. The workbook exercises cover all the major features of PL/SQL, including those new to Oracle8i (e.g., Java and web features, autonomous transactions, and bulk binds). You’ll find chapters on:

Book DescriptionSQLLoader is a ubiquitous tool in the Oracle world. It has been shipped with Oracle since at least Version 6 and continues to be supported and enhanced with each new version of Oracle, including Oracle8 and Oracle8i. The job of SQLLoader is to load data from flat files into an Oracle database. It’s optimized for loading large volumes of data, and is flexible enough to handle virtually any input format. Almost every Oracle user has to use SQLLoader at one time or another, and DBAs are frequently called upon to load data for the users in their organization. Despite SQLLoader’s wide availability and usage, few DBAs and developers know how to get the most out of it. Oracle SQLLoader: The Definitive Guide has everything you need to know to put SQLLoader to its best use: an introduction to SQLLoader, a reference to all of its syntax options, and most importantly, step-by-step instructions for all the SQLLoader tasks you’d want to perform–and maybe some you didn’t realize you COULD perform. You’ll learn how to construct the necessary control files and load from different types of files containing different types of data (e.g., fixed-width data, delimited data, and data of various datatypes). You’ll also learn how to validate data, load it selectively, transform it as it is loaded, and recover after failure. This book explains how to optimize SQLLoader performance by adjusting the transaction size and using the new direct path option. It also covers the newest SQLLoader features–the loading of large object (LOB) columns and the new object types (nested tables, varying arrays, and object tables). Oracle SQLLoader: The Definitive Guide is an indispensable resource for anyone who is new to SQLLoader; a task-oriented learning tool for those who are already using it; and a quick reference for every user. If you want to take best advantage of an essential Oracle tool, you need this book. Table of Contents Book Details
