Review Oracle Modernization Solutions / Packt Publishing:Detail Description Much has been written about legacy modernization in the past few years. Most of the books, analysts' reports, and white papers focus on why you should modernize and theorize at a high level regarding the different approaches and possible outcomes. This book provides a detailed guide to how to implement two well known mainframe modernization approaches-SOA Enablement and Re-architecture. SOA Integration is a non-invasive approach and allows legacy components to be used as part of an SOA infrastructure quickly and without risk and is often the first step in the larger modernization process. Re-architecture focuses on reverse engineering legacy applications to preserve business knowledge then forward them to modern architectures that take advantage of open and extensible standards. In this book you will learn how to quickly and easily expose a mainframe VSAM data store in an Oracle-based Java EE application. You will also learn how to leverage your mainframe application code to create a new Oracle/Java EE SOA-based application. The book is agnostic in terms of hardware and operating system as most of these have proven to be able to handle the reliability, scalability, and performance of a mainframe system. After reading this book, you will feel much more comfortable that mainframe modernization is possible and can made less risky by following the recommendations and approaches used in the book. Approach This book combines case studies with practical examples of how to implement modernization techniques using Oracle (and partner) products to modernize to the Oracle Platform. [+]
The book also weighs the pros and cons of specific modernization use cases. Finally, we explore some of the emerging trends in technology and how they apply to legacy modernization.

Review The Definitive Guide to SOA: Oracle® Service Bus, Second Edition / Apress:The Definitive Guide to SOA: Oracle® Service Bus, Second Edition targets professional software developers and architects who know enterprise development but are new to enterprise service buses (ESBs) and service–oriented architecture (SOA) development. This is the first book to cover a practical approach to SOA using the BEA AquaLogic Service Bus tool. And it’s written from the “source”—BEA Systems AquaLogic product lead Jeff Davies. This book provides hands–on information to developing SOA–driven applications with ESBs as central components. It also gives strategic guidance on SOA planning, web service life–cycle management, administration of an ESB, and security considerations. Author Jeff Davies is careful to cut through theory and get straight to demonstrating successful use of the product. What you’ll learn View code examples that demonstrate how to use the major features of the service bus. Learn tips and tricks to solve common problems. Change your thinking on versioning web services: instead of applying versions to web services, which the author feels is simply the wrong tool for managing service life cycle, learn a new way to manage the service life cycle. Get a new perspective on planning your “service landscape. [+]
” Discover administration–specific details for keeping your ESB running with practical advice on moving your configurations from development to testing and production—details that are commonly omitted from technical books. Who is this book for? This book is for developers, technical architects, tech leads, professional software developers ,and architects. It’s targeted at folks who know enterprise development but are new to enterprise service buses and SOA development.

Review Oracle 10g: SQL / Course Technology:Oracle 10g: SQL prepares students for the first exam in both the Oracle Database Administrator (DBA) and Oracle Forms Developer certification tracks and offers them a solid understanding of Oracle10g and how to use it effectively. This textbook is not simply a study guide; it is written for individuals who have just a basic knowledge of databases and can be utilized in a course on this latest implementation of SQL from Oracle. Students begin with a solid foundation for creating databases (7 chapters) then strengthen their knowledge in creating queries (7 chapters). To assist students in bridging SQL topics to further studies, the last two chapters introduce students to SQL tuning, compare Oracle’s SQL syntax to other databases (MS SQL Server and MySQL) and describe how SQL can be embedded in applications (ASP. net). This textbook also covers SQL*Plus and iSQL*Plus so students can identify and distinguish the differences between these interfaces.
