Hi all,

Is this one good?
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/09745= 99352/103-0891699-0877465?v=3Dglance&n=3D283155&n=3D507846&s=3D= books&v=3Dglance

I can see the review from Mr. Burleson who was apparently an ed= itor as well (well, expected for Rampant Press).

The comment seem a = bit odd to me:
As the editor for this book I wa= s able to read the in-depth utility of Oracle Streams and see how it is goi= ng to be a super-hot technology. Oracle Streams is a great replacement for = the older standby-database technology and it's is also a great alternative = to Oracle RAC clusters.=20

Best of all, Oracle Streams is a great way to set-up a disaster rec= overy server, and also use the server for traffic. Tumma did an exceptional= job on this book and I highly recommend it for anyone considering failover= or disaster recovery solutions.=20

Madhu's text goes far-beyond the nuts-and-bolts and he shares real-= world secrets and techniques for using Oracle Streams in a mission-critical= environment. If you need to understand high-speed Oracle replication, this= is a must-have book.

I am really surpised to consider Oracle Streams anywhere close to = replacement of RAC. I am also quite skeptical to that it's an appropriate s= olution for DR... well, maybe... maybe...
Anyway, I promised that two books from this Sir are the last ones that= I have on my bookshelf (one of them was only edited by him thoug= h).
 
No surprise on this one:
 
Is there an alternative reading (besides manuals) on Oracle Streams? I= would buy this one but after few recent notes/blogs from some promine= nt authors I am kind of reassured that it might be just loosing m= y time. Or maybe this one is good to have?

Best regards,
Alex Gorbachev
