Hi, there,
I'm thinking about become a database developer (for enterprise, if
possible, with EAI), probably Oracle is the only reasonable choice (?). I am
a Java programmer, been using Oracle as back end. But havn't poke around it
much. So basiclly I'm a kind of beginner for Oracle development.
What book would you recommand that can get me a database developer job 3
months down the road (not right now, of course, besides, I need time to
read).
I've heard "Expert one on one" is pretty good, tom kyte is smart, but I
don't think it fits me at this stage. I need to learn a wide range of stuff,
not too deep. Is anyone have opinion on "Oracle 8i Enterprise Development",
it seems fit my situation, covers a lot of concepts and tools in a single
book.
What's your opinion on 8i vs 9i, should I start off with 9i?
I know this is Oracle group, but I still want to ask: Should I spend time
on other database development, i.e. DB2 and SQL server (I dislike M$, BTW).
Thank you in advance
Justin
