Audience for This Book
We wrote this book for people possessing all levels of Oracle expertise. Our target
audiences include DBAs who spend most of their workday managing Oracle, application
developers who build their systems on the data available in an Oracle
database, and system administrators who are concerned with how Oracle will affect
their computing environments. Of course, IT managers and business users interact
more peripherally with the actual Oracle product. On the one hand, anticipating the
appropriate technical level of all our potential readers presented difficulties; on the
other hand, we??™ve tried to build a solid foundation from the ground up and believe
that some introductory material benefits everyone. We??™ve also tried to ensure that
every reader receives all the fundamental information necessary to truly understand
the topics presented.
