5.0 out of 5 stars
"The Only Game in Town" situation keeps it from being a 10,
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Replication: Tools and Techniques for Managing Distributed Information (Paperback)
It's tough to find an entire book on the subject of replication. Most database books give only a chapter's worth of lip service to the topic, if that much, and then move on to the other "important" chapters. I can't even count how many "advanced" database books I have that devote an entire chapter on introducing SQL, yet skip this advanced topic. Distributed apps require distributed data and this book defintiely covers a lot of ground in the right direction.
The only thing that kept me from giving it a 10 is the hope that something better may come along. But even if it does, I'll still thumb through Buretta's some more. The Case Studies are a particularly good feature, and one actually applied to the situation I needed resolving when I picked this book up
5.0 out of 5 stars
Soup to Nuts,
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Replication: Tools and Techniques for Managing Distributed Information (Paperback)
A must read for any technical manager who is responsible for a system that uses replication or is planning to do so. Technologists (DBA, SA, DA, Developer,..) will also gain valuable insight into the world of data replication that the vendor documentation does not provide. The decision tree (pg215) and the case study take this book over the top.
