Hi
Having studied database theory long back in college,
and never having used it practically ever, I now want
to give a take on it. Installed Oracle 8i server, opened
sqlplus - created tables and tried some queries - it worked.
there is more here, some terminology new to me.
(like tns listener, user tables, system tables, relationships/associations,
views, triggers, stored procedures, data-sources, etc).
Should I really need to learn these to be able to use a database.
Any good online tutorial on these things?
Now I want to do it from java. I hear two terms - jdbc and jdo. am new to both. somebody says jdo is today's hot stuff. Can I skip entirely learning jdbc?
Good and/or brief tutorials on these are welcome.
thanks
csk
