Amazon.com Review: There's always work for an Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) with up-to-date database administrator (DBA) credentials. If you're planning to take the Oracle8: New Features for Administrators (1Z0-010) exam, Exam Cram: Oracle DBA 7.3 to 8 Upgrade can help you crystallize your familiarity with the material you need to know to pass comfortably. In typical Exam Cram style, this book sticks close to Oracle's published exam objectives, and will prove most useful to readers who have Oracle8 systems to experiment on.
Robert Freeman presents his material in a style that's the model of efficiency, with prose, tables, and conceptual diagrams that get immediately to the point. The author includes a number of handy tips, including the mnemonic ORDR for recollecting the new Oracle8 ROWID format (ORDR, he says, stands for Object number, Relative datafile number, Data block number, and Row number). While it's great to see sample questions at the end of each chapter and answers that appear with explanations of why they're correct, some readers may be annoyed by the fact that the answers are immediately below the questions they correspond to. You'll have to quiz yourself with a sheet of paper to prevent inadvertent cheating. That's a minor complaint, though. Read this book for its concise presentation of what you need to know to keep your Oracle DBA certification current. --David Wall
