Written by a known Oracle and replication technology expert, I enjoyed learning new things on how to design and manage Oracle replication environments. The excellent examples, scripts and workshops helped me to ramp up quickly on this complex technology.

This review is from: Oracle Replication: Expert Methods for Robust Data Sharing (Oracle In-Focus series) (Paperback)

Nicely compiled book with all the necessary information and procedures to implement replication. It is nice to see replication implemented using scripts/cmds other than GUI. Can recommend to any intermediate/advanced DBA who administer distributed databases.
