Must read for every smart DBA
I just love this book. The best book on Data Guard i have read so far.
Very detailed and covers the basic fundamental concepts of database that helps in understanding a Data Guard architecture. A must for every and any DBA (from a beginner to expert).
It not only talks about the stanbdby features in the previous versions but also tell how the database has evolved and grown with the business and market, specifically with the release of 11g.
It also talks about the Best Practices and the DR approaches different customers take in different situations.
According to me this is like a Data Guard Bible.
