Packt is pleased to announce,Oracle 11g Streams Implementer's Guide a new book written by Ann L. R. McKinnell and Eric Yen. This book will serve as an excellent companion to the Oracle Streams Administration Guide. It also explains in detail the various components of Oracle Streams and how they work together.

Oracle Streams 11g, a built-in feature of the Oracle database, is a critical data replication and integration feature. It provides flexible infrastructure that meets a wide variety of information sharing needs. Oracle Streams enables the propagation of data, transactions and events in a data stream either within a database or from one database to another.

Oracle database administrators will get a clear and concise explanation of Oracle Streams components and concepts. They will also find various design considerations and techniques to understand what is needed to initiate building. In addition to this Oracle database administrators will learn to configure both Source and target databases to support Streams capture propagation and apply processes.

Readers will be taught how to set up a single source configuration using the enterprise manager DB Console to divert flow in one direction and apply its concepts to a multi-master or N-Way Replication environment configuration. This book also gives various implementation examples applied to complicated systems which will solidify the user's stream concepts. Popular advanced features of Oracle Streams including Subsetting, Tags, Rules and Rule based transformations are also covered in this book.

With easy step-by-step instructions, this book is ideal for Oracle Database Administrators. System and Database Architects responsible for the design of distributed database environments using Oracle Streams will also find this book useful. The book is out now and is available from Packt.
