What are you looking for?
- A list that helps a DBA talk to Java developers?
- A list related to JDBC?
- A list devoted to the Java modules stored in Oracle and executed by the
JVM?
My experience is that Java developers think the world revolves around Java.
The database is merely a way to persist the data. As such they don't want to
consider anything other than "pure" Java, only modestly cluttered by "old /
legacy" database concepts.
Tips:
- Learn as much about Java programming as you can so you can knowledgably
talk to your Java developers, using their terms.
- Try to convince the Java developers that they should start with an ERD.
Emphasize that the data is an enterprise resource and not the sole province
of their Java classes.
- Try to understand their transaction mechanism. With a GUI-based system
implemented by classes that call other classes, it can become difficult to
get to a COMMIT statement. Naturally transaction is a database concept, not
a Java concept. It isn't that they are stupid, just a limitation of their
Java environment.
