First Post

I am new to the blog thing, so I'll see how all this goes. First the background. I am an Oracle DBA. I work very closely with the developers to make sure that their SQL and table designs are good. I have done this job for 5 years or so. Before that I was a developer coding against Oracle databases. Back further I did Sybase. Even further back I did IMS and Cobol.

The purpose of this blog is to share some of my knowledge that I have gained in working with Oracle to a wider audience. I am the first to admit that I am no guru. In fact, it seems I am always learning something new about the database. I find myself giving database lessons to developers on a one on one basis. I have no issue with teaching. Only that 1 or 2 people get the benefit of the lesson. So this little blog will allow others to benefit from these lessons.
