James Morle

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2000

Excellent and error free book
Now a days there are lot of Oracle books which confuses the readers with inaccurate information. But this book gives 100% accurate and pracical information. And James knows about the topics he is talking. Not that just cut and paste from Oracle documentation or some metalink notes. Great book and I have already recommened to most of my friends.

Practical Oracle8i(TM): Building Efficient Databases

Jonathan Lewis

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2000

read from cover-to-cover immediately after certification
Once you pass your certification, get this book and read it from cover to cover, or at least the bulk of the chapters. It will go fast and enjoyable, and it will give an extra perspective over what you just learned. As another reviewer said, don't worry about it not being 9i.

Oracle8i Internal Services for Waits, Latches, Locks, and Memory

Steve Adams

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 1999

WOW! Heady stuff. Read it twice.
I'll admit, this book made my head hurt the first time I read it, and I consider myself to be pretty well versed in Oracle. Steve does a fantastic job explaining some of the internal workings of the database. He dispells many of the "tuning" myths associated with locks and latches and touches on using Oracle's wait statistics, which has become a foundation for a new and better approach to ...

Chip Dawes, Biju Thomas

Sybex Inc, 2000

Great Study Guide
This book was very good and helped me pass the 1Z0-001 exam with a score of 54/57 (95%). All topics on the exam are covered by this book, and the CD comes with some good practice exams that are similar (although a little easier) to the actual exam questions. I would recommend this to anyone taking the 1Z0-001 exam.

Manning Publications, 1999

Most useful DBA book I've read so far
As an Oracle Instructor and DBA I've had the opportunity to review numerous Oracle texts for DBA's and have to say I've been quite disappointed with most of them. Mr. Yuhanna's book however is an exception. Out of the many DBA texts I have on my shelf this is the one I goto most frequently. Unlike other texts which spend excessive amounts of time covering uncommonly used features and little to ...

Coriolis Group Books, 2001

Reduce Your Test Stress
Preparing for any exam is prone to cause a certain amount of anxiety, but with this book one should feel completely at ease going into the test. The book does a marvelous job covering the basics of SQL statements. Some of the hints and tips stray close to being obvious, but do not detract from the book overall. Some of the practice questions are almost too easy, but it's a good warmup to the real ...

OCP: ORacle8i DBA Performance Tuning and Network Administration Study Guide (With CD-ROM)

14 reviews
Joseph C. Johnson, Matthew Weishan, ...

Sybex Inc, 2000

good preparation kit
I'd like to say this book is good but not excellent. Divided into 2 parts, Performance Tuning and Network Administration. You can rely on Network Administration part to make you pass the exam without using other preparation kit. But for the Performance Tuning part, I accept that it's not quite complete. Don't be surprised if you find some questions in the exam ask about something that never ...

Combining Sql Server and Oracle together
This book examines the most recent verions of Oracle 8i and sql server and compares one with the other in a non-biased way. Features of both are examined and explained. Microsoft has engineered Sql server with a particular strategy in mind argues the author. This strategy is integration with all the other Microsoft products.

Steve Bobrowski

McGraw-Hill Companies, 2005

This is a great book
The text is very clearly written and covers Oracle well. I don't understand the poor reviews. Let's face it - these are complex technologies. No book is going to deliver everything but this one comes close. What I like best is the book's focus on serviceable details (i.e. clear examples you can extend and apply). It's a good kick-start and covers all the major parts and functions in Oracle. ...

Kevin Loney, George Koch

Osborne/McGraw-Hill, 2000

A MUST For Any Developer
Oracle 8i: The Complete Reference should be in your library if you are a developer. It has everything you need to design and maintain your database. It really comes in handy when you need to create SQL statements, write PL/SQL, or just figure out what function you need to use. I am not a DBA (I'm a web developer), but I pull this book out everyday to do what I need to get my data from the ...

I didn't score great in all my exams, but I wouldn't blame the book, its because I took 4 exams in about a ...

Essential Oracle8i Data Warehousing: Designing, Building, and Managing Oracle Data Warehouses

9 reviews
Gary Dodge, Tim Gorman

Wiley, 2000

Highly recommended
I am a veteran Oracle DW designer and tuning specialist. This is a great book - very easy to read, technically accurate, and comprehensive (an unusual combination!). I can say from experience that the emphasis is in the right places. The Oracle manuals tell you how to do things - this tells you what to do and why. I highly recommend it for any Oracle DBA involved in building a data warehouse.

Excellent book for Arch. and Admin. Exam
I am a person with limited exposure to Oracle DBA stuff and this book was wonderful as far as the Part I is concerned. It is very well structured, easy to read and comes with a great CD full of practice exams. I passed the exam with a 58/64 score and I found the real exam much easier after going thro' this book (chapters 1 thro 9). I am not sure about the Backup and Recovery piece as I have just ...
