Oracle 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:

- Oracle products, options, data structures, and overall architecture

for Oracle Database 11g, as well as earlier releases (Oracle Database

10g, Oracle9i, and Oracle8i)

- Installing, running, managing, monitoring, networking, and tuning

Oracle, including Enterprise Manager (EM) and Oracle's self-tuning and

management capabilities; and using Oracle security, auditing, and

compliance (a new chapter in this edition)

- Multiuser concurrency, data warehouses, distributed databases,

online transaction processing (OLTP), high availability, and hardware

architectures (e.g., SMP, clusters, NUMA, and grid computing)

- Features beyond the Oracle database: Oracle Application Express,

Fusion Middleware (including Oracle Application Server), and database

SOA support as a Web services provider 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." --Andrew Mendelsohn,

Senior Vice President, Database Server Technologies, Oracle Corporation
