Customer Reviews

Superb, Superb mix !!!

One of those rare books that is useful to the new and experienced Oracle user. Explains many of the NT/Oracle interaction details that are glossed over in other books, but are essential to know. Excellent prose; clear, consise, down-to-earth. These authors "get it".

Great book for experienced Oracle/Unix DBAs going to NT

This book is well structured, well organized, and well written. It has a lot of good examples and figures in support of the text. I referenced this book many times in my first implemetation of Oracle on Windows_NT. It was immensely helpful and saved me a lot of time and effort. The sections on Oracle Enterprise Manager and performance tuning were extremely informative and useful. In my opinion, this book is a must for Oracle DBA's implementing and supporting Oracle on Windows_NT.

Best Book in Market

Very good book for beginners to Intermediate on Oracle on NT. I really learned and enjoyed it.Buy this.

The first actual NT-oriented Oracle book we've seen!

My company has been developing applications on Oracle and NT for more than 4 years already, and we never found a good book that integrated both platforms efficiently. The official Oracle documentation for NT is really poor and this guide is perfect for both first-time users and experienced Oracle DBAs.We highly recommend it!

best on the market

While there are only a few Oracle/NT books, this one shines. The examples are easy to understand, and I was able to avoid many pitfalls by reading the set-up chapters. I find myself referencing this book almost every day. Very helpful; it was the only way for me to implement a large Oracle8/NT system.
