Inhaltsangabe

For Database Systems courses focusing on SQL and/or Oracle, Oracle courses, and SQL courses offered in departments of Computer Science, CIS, MIS, IT and Continuing Education.

Database Systems Using Oracle first introduces students to relational database concepts and database designing techniques, teaching them how to design and implement accurate and effective database systems. With its subsequent in-depth coverage of SQL (the universal query language for relational databases) and PL/SQL (Oracle's procedural language extension to SQL), this text serves not only as an introductory guide but also as a future reference. The author concludes with an introduction to the architecture and administration of Oracle 8, the new features of Oracle 8i, and the concepts of object orientation.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Oracle is the premier database package used in industry and it is the preferred choice of many academic institutions to teach relational database applications. Database Systems Using Oracle provides the most comprehensive coverage of the Structured Query Language (SQL) and the Programming Language/ Structured Query Language (PUSQL) in Oracle version 8 or higher.

Mastery of Oracle SQL and PUSQL languages is greatly facilitated by the provision of clear, step-by-step instructions, supplemented by hands-on examples, exercise questions, and lab activities. Throughout the text the author uses two real-life running databases as a model as well as a dedicated section on SQL statements with an additional third database scenario. Exposure to these databases increases comprehension of real-life database issues.

Features:

• Comprehensive coverage of the relational concepts and the database designing techniques necessary to design and implement effective database systems.
• Thorough coverage of SQL.
• Complete coverage of PL/SQL.
• An introduction to the architecture and administration of Oracle 8, Oracle 8I, and the concept of object orientation.
• Each chapter contains many exercise questions and lab activities promoting the "learn-by-doing" approach.
• A companion website offers instant student assessment materials and PowerPoint slides for each chapter.
