review: Backup & Recovery by W. Curtis Preston
Just finished up O’Reilly’s Backup & Recovery by W. Curtis Preston. The title is wide-reaching, covering backups at the operating system as well as on all the popular database platforms, including Oracle, MySQL, Postgres, Sybase, SQL Server and DB2. Preston has an amazing grasp of a spectrum of technologies and platforms, and as an Oracle & MySQL DBA myself, I’d use this as my backup reference text any day.
I’ve posted my review of Backup and Recovery over at Amazon.
