Designed for developers, not just DBAs ...
I noticed someone bought it for Oracle installation, and then gave it 1 star because _he_ failed to read the front cover.This book is not an installation guide to a single database.Oracle has some excellent documentation that covers the installation of its products.

This is an "all-in-one book" for sysadmins, DBAs _and_ developers who wish to deplay MySQL, PostgreSQL and Oracle 8i.As such, not only does it cover installation, but SQL, various front-ends like ODBC and JDBC as well as securing databases on Linux.It's not going to go into vendor-specific development tools and administration, but general SQL administration, and Linux-centric capabilities.

If you want a book on Oracle on Linux, go buy an Oracle manual.If you want a general, "all-in-one book" for databases on Linux, from DBA to development, this is a fairly good one.

Disappointing
I was hoping for some guidelines to help with the installation of Oracle on Linux but found very little useful information in this book.

Unfortunately the authors chose to spend much of their time instead on SQL and relational basics -- which, whatever their strengths may be, is clearly their weakness.For example, while discussing "relationship theory" (surely meaning "Relational Theory") the author of chapter 9 incorrectly defined 1st Normal Form as a "one-to-many relationship" and 2nd Normal Form as a "one-to-one relationship" between tables.

The rest of what I read -- I didn't have the patience to read much more -- wasn't much better. ... Read more
