| The release of Oracle Database 11g is one that comes with much anticipation. We are at a time when data is exploding and the cost of operations must be reduced. Oracle 11g is a release that addresses many of these concerns and provides a database that can help organizations move forward without boundaries. With the release of Oracle Database 11g: A Beginner’s Guide, we bring back together the Abramson, Abbey, and Corey team that has been writing these books for over 13 years. That time slice is pale compared to the length of time the Oracle database software has been embracing the information highway. Recently Oracle celebrated its 30th anniversary with the customary hoopla and fanfare…justifiably so.
One cannot rub shoulders with fellow information technologists without experiencing Oracle’s technology, and quite a piece of technology it is! In the beginning, there was a database, and then came development tools. The Oracle product line added components at an ever more accelerating rate. This book is all about the foundation underneath just about everything running the Oracle technology stack—the database. Regardless of what corner of the technology you work with, being familiar with the underpinnings of the database technology makes you a better practitioner. |
