Enterprise Solutions by Alexander
"Sasha" Pachev ISBN:
0-471-26922-0, 398 Pages,
2003

MySQL Enterprise Solutions is a complete and
thorough book on the topic of MySQL
The book's purpose is to bootstrap the reader into the world
of MySQL, especially if the reader is a
developer working in C/
C++, PHP,
Perl or Java

MySQL Enterprise
Solutions contains a great deal of general information
about running MySQL on different
computer platforms, including directions for installing the
package and optimizing it. MySQL
versions 3.23 and
4.0 are covered.
The
author also tackles issues related to the enterprise
environment early on in the book, discu-ssing the features
some DBA's and programmers use to
classify a DBMS as enterprise-ready. He
indicates that stored procedures, triggers, subqueries and
referential integrity are features that will be incorporated
into future versions of MySQL, but for
now, not having them creates an intellectual challenge for
MySQL users. He also points to
benchmarks that show how fast MySQL is
compared to other DBMS's. So although
MySQL lacks features some people would
call requirements for a true enterprise
RDBMS, the author insinuates that real
programmers can find creative ways to live without these
features.

MySQL Enterprise Solutions is well organized
and written in a style that MySQL and
Linux novices can appreciate, but one
that won't frustrate readers who regularly write code. The
index also is good, providing ample code samples readers can
use to learn necessary database basics with any of the
languages listed above.

MySQL Enterprise Solutions is an excellent
choice for anyone who needs to become proficient in
MySQL quickly, with the intent of developing
applications around MySQL I recommend
this book for both MySQL DBA's and
developers.
