Oracle Database 10g OCP Certification All-in-One Exam Guide by John Watson, Damir Bersinic

From Barnes & Noble

The Barnes & Noble Review
Oracle’s 10g database certifications remain among the industry’s most valuable. If you’re on track to earn your OCA and OCP, one book covers them both: from basic database administration to maximizing security, performance, and availability.

That’s every objective for Exams #1Z0-042 and #1Z0-043. You’ll find extremely readable and focused coverage of Oracle 10g installation; creating, programming, and interfacing with Oracle databases; managing processes and storage; administering users; manipulating data; PL/SQL; locking; networking; monitoring; and much more.

There’s extensive coverage of backup and recovery, including RMAN, recovering complete and incomplete databases, and using Oracle Flashback Database. From distributed transactions to materialized views, it’s here -- both from the standpoint of exam prep and day-to-day reference.

Add two realistic practice exams and the whole book on CD-ROM, and you have an indispensable resource for accelerating your Oracle career. Bill Camarda, from the November 2005 Read Only
