5.0 out of 5 stars Great Information!
This book is very well done- clear and concise. I'm very interested in databases on Linux, especially with Sybase. This book does a really strong job clarifying Sybase, and explaining such things as Testing, Design, Configuration, etc. I do recommend this book to anyone working or planning to work with databses on Linux.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too general - where's the beef?
Way too general. I was looking for more detailed and specific installation & tuning help for Postgresql database on Linux. The book provided a quick overview and the high points, but certainly not enough to get the product installed & optimized. It's coverage of GUI tools provided only an overview, with not enough info to even persue it.

This review is from: DBA's Guide to Databases Under Linux (Paperback)
My copy is now really well dogeared because of how much I'm referring to it. I've recommended this book to many of my colleagues as it's a great reference.
