Synopsis
Post takes a hands-on, practical approach to DBMS, focusing on teaching students how to design, build and manage database applications and giving them practice doing so. As with the first edition, Post continues to include many examples, exercises, and two sample databases to give students plenty of hands-on practice. There is expanded coverage of Oracle and SQL Server, especially as related to building forms and reports in chapter 6. There is also expanded coverage in Data Queries and Advanced Queries of OLAP, data warehouses and data mining, and a free student CD-ROM contains the Rolling Thunder and Pet Store sample databases.

UML is a newer notation standard that major software developers, like Microsoft and Oracle, have adopted.
Appendix of several cases that can be used as end-of-term projects for building database applications.
