Review SQL for eServer i5 and iSeries / Mc Press:In this book, you will learn about Structured Query Language (SQL), but with an IBM eServer i5/iSeries twist. The future seems clear on this point: SQL is the direction of the future for IBM's Universal Database. While it is true that the majority of existing databases on the i5 and iSeries were created with DDS, it's still undeniable that DDS will slowly fade from use, much like the RPG program cycle. With a practical "how-to" style, SQL for eServer i5 and iSeries first introduces you to the basics essential for any developer to build a solid foundation. Then the book examines-in detail-the many ways in which SQL functions on the iSeries. All possible environments are explored: the traditional 5250 green-screen applications, the SQL scripting tool within iSeries Navigator, and the methods of accessing iSeries databases from within Visual Basic. Learn through real-life examples of using SQL to interact with DB2 databases. You'll learn the ins and outs of sub-selects, joins, unions, and views, as well as tips and techniques for interacting with legacy applications, and so much more. Though intended for programmers already familiar with SQL, beginners will appreciate the book's handy tutorial Appendix to get started with SQL basics. After reading this book, you'll see that the i5/iSeries platform is far more than the green-screen application server it's often perceived as and that it is indeed one of the finest systems available for use as a business server today. [+]Make your database access cutting-edge with SQL for eServer i5 and iSeries. In this book you will learn to: - Incorporate SQL into existing iSeries business and client-side applications - Embed SQL within RPG programs, merging the flexibility of SQL with the power of RPG - Implement referential constraints, primary and unique key indexes, and check constraints - Journal physical files, and find out why this task is so important - Extend your database with user-defined functions and procedures - Use new GUI development tools for running, debugging, and tuning SQL statements.

Review A Guide to SQL / Course Technology:A GUIDE TO SQL, 8E, illustrates the basics of SQL programming using straightforward instruction and extensive hands-on exercises. Phil Pratt and Mary Last continue to present basic SQL commands in a business context using Oracle. A new running case, for a total of three, presents lessons in a real-world context for managing orders, parts, customers, and sales reps. The text provides hands-on projects at the end of each chapter, including review questions, running cases, and extensive exercises, providing students with the opportunity to solve problems and apply skills from each chapter. The author uses an interesting didactic innovation that every textbook writer should consider imitating: Instead of illustrating ideas with microprograms, which are good for almost nothing except illustrating the idea, Pratt develops two examples throughout the entire book. By the time you complete this thin but comprehensive volume, you will have completed two real databases. The book also contains embedded questions so you can check whether or not you've grasped specific concepts before proceeding to the next section. Pratt's extended case studies show how SQL programs can be layered on one another other to slowly build up functionality. As such, it serves both as an SQL language manual as well as an example of how to create relatively large SQL codes. This book does not make specific reference to any particular SQL implementation, so it can be used with any standard SQL engine.

Review Moving Objects Databases (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems) / Morgan Kaufmann:The current trends in consumer electronics-including the use of GPS-equipped PDAs, phones, and vehicles, as well as the RFID-tag tracking and sensor networks-require the database support of a specific flavor of spatio-temporal databases. These we call Moving Objects Databases. Why do you need this book? With current systems, most data management professionals are not able to smoothly integrate spatio-temporal data from moving objects, making data from, say, the path of a hurricane very difficult to model, design, and query. Whether your field is geology, national security, urban planning, mobile computing, or almost anything in between, this book's concepts and techniques will help you solve the data management problems associated with this kind of data. + Focuses on the modeling and design of data from moving objects-such as people, animals, vehicles, hurricanes, forest fires, oil spills, armies, or other objects-as well as the storage, retrieval, and querying of that very voluminous data. + Demonstrates through many practical examples and illustrations how new concepts and techniques are used to integrate time and space in database applications. + Provides exercises and solutions in each chapter to enable the reader to explore recent research results in practice.

Review Efficient Software Development with DB2 for OS/390: Organizational and Technical Measures for Performance Optimization / GWV-Vieweg:Jürgen Glag' s book points out how to ensure professional and efficient database software development in DB2 mainframe and client/server environments. The asset of this book is that technical aspects (performance, tuning) and organizational measures (economical performance) are covered. Consequently, this book is suitable particularly for organizations that want to use DB2 in an economical and safe way. Work in various large production systems with DB2 revealed that most performance problems arise either from a certain critical transaction load onwards or for particularly large tables. Many measures can be taken in order to identify and to solve these problems during software development and not, as is often the case, only in production environment. Beyond explaining the causes for performance problems, this book also describes and explains well-proven measures to avoid such problems. The book particularly addresses those persons who are responsible for data processing and quality assurance; project leaders and project managers in the data processing area; and software and application developers.
