Fabian Pascal, one of the industry's leading experts, identifies ten critical, recurring issues that both database users and vendors often fail to address appropriately.

Along the way, Pascal offers no-holds-barred assessments of how well current SQL implementations and commercial products address each issue.

Databas(e)ics, in short, is a complete guide to building databases right the first time, so they don't have to be rebuilt later.MARKET:For all DBAs, developers, managers, and end-users that need to understand the best ways to design and implement database systems.
