Product Description


Advanced SQL:1999 - Understanding Object-Relational and Other Advanced Features is the practitioner's handbook to the standard's advanced features. It is not a re-presentation of the standard, but rather an authoritative, in-depth guide to its practical application. Like its companion, SQL:1999 - Understanding Relational Language Components, which explained the standard's basic features, this book will show you how to make your applications both effective and standard-compliant.


This handy reference has a modular format so you can explore specific topics with ease. It is equally useful to those upgrading from earlier versions of SQL and those with no previous experience. Written by the standard's distinguished editor, Advanced SQL:1999 will complete your knowledge and support your skills like no other book can.

* Focuses entirely on the issues that matter to programmers who are connecting applications to databases.
* Details SQL:1999's object facilities, including structured user-defined types, typed tables, user-defined routines, and routine invocation.
* Examines facilities new to SQL, including those relating to on-line analytical processing (OLAP), management of external data (SQL/MED), and Java support.
* Covers the ongoing development of XML support.
* Includes appendices that cover the SQL:1999 annexes, a SQL:1999 example using UDTs, status codes, and useful information on the standardization process.

Inside This Book (learn more)
First Sentence:
The decade of the 1990s was notable for many significant events in multiple areas of information technology: client/server computing; the evolution of the Internet from an academic and research network into the foundation of e-commerce and e-business; the growth of business intelligence and data warehousing; the emergence of the World Wide Web as a medium for commerce; widespread adoption of packaged software for enterprise applications, call center management, sales force automation, and customer relationship management (CRM); and many other advances that have made information technology, circa the turn of the century, exponentially more pervasive in business and society than a mere decade earlier. Read the first page
