There's no shortage of GOM replies in this thread apparently ( Grumpy Old Men )

Doug you for one have been honest in this thread. Some of the people responding here claim vast knowledge and experience in oracle and plsql. From my point of view, people that are highly skilled don't need to advertise it.

Instead of the posturing perhaps more relevant and effective advice is to give you a couple of references.

As far as PLSQL goes and it's place in oracle processing I recommend Tom Kyte's book Effective Oracle by Design. It is slightly dated but still very good. Particularly relevant to what you may want to concentrate on is Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 but the whole book is very good.

Tom's new book "Expert Oracle Database Architecture" is also highly recommended as well as the Oracle concepts manual ( available free from http://tahiti.oracle.com ). Received on Wed May 23 2007 - 07:14:26 CDT
