Oracle Administration and Management

Many databases are large and complex, making them very difficult to manage. In turn, data can become difficult to access, expensive to store, and even damaged or destroyed. Oracle 9i offers new functionality for the Oracle database system, ensuring that the database runs quickly, efficiently, and reliably.
* Shows the best techniques, tips, and tools for Oracle systems
* New edition focuses on the 9i version, but also covers releases 8 and 8i since many organizations still support these versions
* Companion Web site includes all of the software scripts to manage a database, plus links to lite and demo versions of database management software and other DBA tools
