About this title

Synopsis:

This is the book/cd-rom package that describes how to optimize the performance of an Oracle 8 database running on a UNIX system. Covered systems include Solaris, Sequent, and HP-UX. One of the things that will separate this book from the competition is that it provides specific tuning direction for both OLTP databases and DSS databases. No other tuning book breaks the direction down to this level of detail. In addition, a CD-ROM will be included that contains shell scripts, a performance monitor for Oracle. Oracle scripts, a parameter reference, and related white-papers.

The #1 Guide to Oracle8 and Oracle7 Tuning on UNIX� Platforms

Tuning Oracle without tuning UNIX� is like tuning half the cylinders onyour car. If you want all the performance you're paying for, you need to do both-and Oracle8 and UNIX� Performance Tuning will show you how.

Oracle Senior Performance Engineer Ahmed Alomari covers virtually every relevant optimization technique in Oracle8, Oracle7, and three leading versions of UNIX�: Solaris 2.6, HP-UX 11, and Sequent Dynix/ptx 4.4. He presents in-depth coverage of both OLTP and DSS applications, covering optimization of the UNIX� kernel, memory, processors and I/O, and all these major Oracle8 performance enhancements:

Partitioning
Star queries
Parallel DML
Connection Manager
Connection pooling
Multiple buffer pools
Parallel query enhancements
I/O slaves
Multiple DBWR processes
Optimizer enhancements
PRO*C enhancements
Any correspondence should be sent AALOMARI@us.oracle.com

Learn new techniques for optimizing object-relational databases. Use the tips and techniques offered in this book to help eliminate SQL code bottlenecks. Whether you're running Oracle8 or Oracle7 on a UNIX� platform, this is the book you need to optimize your environment.

Oracle8 and UNIX� Performance Tuning includes a CD-ROM which consists of performance monitoring scripts, product information, and extensive white papers.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
