Oracle Distributed Systems

Very good book. Good Structure, well writtern and full of information. Author gave very clear explanation on Oracle Distributed Systems. I hope new edition will cover more on addressing common problems that faced during replication, how to detect and solve it, performance tuning and other hands on topics.

Great book

Very good book. Author gives clear and detailed explanation to Oracle distributed systems. The essential guide for advanced DBA/Developers. Anxious to see new release with 8i or 9i tips.

Useful for Replication

It would have been better if the author has addressed the common problems faced during replication, how to detect them and solve them. Otherwise a good book. Many packages have changed in Oracle 8i. Better wait till the next release covering 8i is out in the market.

adequate coverage

This book does a reasonable job covering both distributed databases and replication. More coverage on maintenance and problem-solving would be helpful (i.e. What to look at when replication fails dd views etc.)

Excellent book

This is a great book. Its well written, has lots of useful tips and advice based on the author's actual experience, and loads of helpful scripts/utilities. Its the only book of its type that I've seen. Another winner from O'Reilly!
