Pete Finnigan & Alex Gorbachev 
Expert Oracle Practices 
Oracle Database Administration from the Oak Table

This book is an anthology of effective database management techniques representing the collective wisdom of the Oak Table Network. With an emphasis upon performance—but also branching into security, national language, and other issues—the book helps you deliver the most value for your company’s investment in Oracle Database technologies. You’ll learn to effectively plan for and monitor performance, to troubleshoot systematically when things go wrong, and to manage your database rather than letting it manage you.
