Rating: There are many problems that Perl solves best. There are many problems that Oracle database solves best. The complementary nature of Perl and Oracle provides an efficient and real life solution to many business problems. This book addresses this synergy and demostrates some of the remarkable linkages between Perl and Oracle. The presentation is not for a beginner in either Perl or Oracle. The presentation aims for DBAs and network administrators. This book covers a lot of ground and demystifies things like Oracle data dictionary, database maintenance tasks, DBI package, CPAN structure, web-based Oracle monitoring tools, perl-based configuration files, and database monitoring. I highly recommend it.
