Summary: A little too basic if you have any Oracle background at all
Comment: I thought that this book was O.K. Unfortunately, I ended up taking it back because it wasn't quite what I needed. I would suggest this book to anyone who has absolutely no clue about being a DBA or Oracle8.x. The first 100 or so pages are dedicated to providing the reader insight into the world of database administration. This book gives some worthwile information on db setup, and not as much specific information as I would like to see on the actual job(s) that a dba does. My suggestion is to combine this book with another (Oracle8i DBA reference or Oracle8i reference). Overall, this book gives decent elementary knowledge of the world of Oracle, but unless you are a complete novice to Oracle/dba buy another book, or look for something more intermediate.

Rating: 3
Summary: Good book for The Oracle Beginner
Comment: This is a good book for the oracle beginner. The concepts, unique to Oracle (from the perspective of a beginner or someone familiar with other database systems such as Microsoft SQL Server) have been plainly explained. Such explanation is not available in Oracle manuals or help files.

Having said that, the book, at times, tries to simplify subjects too much. As a result, the book has a lot more pages than its necessary and might run the risk of frustrating the reader.

I would've given it a higher rating if it was shorter and more to the point. Good book regardless.

Summary: Oracle DBA 101
Comment: I seldom wrote any book comments due to my poor English writing. I consider myself as an Oracle DBA beginner and want to lie on my resume. Though I have completed the whole book I still feel confused about the Oracle architecture and basic Oracle DBA commands. This book is not a good reference book for a starter. Besides, this book doesn't cover some preliminary but important topics such as Oracle Network and background processes. If you just like me want to cheat on your resume to get a DBA job, get a different book.
