Here is a fantastic addition to Apress's ever-growing line of
performance optimization titles for Oracle developers and database
administrators written by internationally acclaimed experts. This book
forges a strong link in the chain from performance problem to
performance solution by giving readers a systematic method for solving
problems once they've been identified. Christian Antognini's emphasis on
planning for performance as an application requirement represents clear
and fresh thinking on the problem of database performance. His use of
roadmaps to provide a repeatable path from an identified problem to a
solution makes his book genuinely helpful to readers who want more than
a random collection of performance tips. Readers of Jonathan Lewis, Tom
Kyte, Craig Shallahamer will welcome the chance to add Christian
Antognini to their shelves.
