Need Best way to start learning Oracle 11g DBA

Hi.This is Tejaswi.
I want to learn Oracle 11g DBA.I've downloaded all software's and Documentation for Orcl 11g R2. Now. i want to start Learning DBA. Can any one suggest me the best way to Start learning DBA?
Please suggest me the good books For Oracle Architecture and SQL.......

Hello Tejaswi,
The advice you got about reading the Oracle Concepts and 2 Day DBA documentation is very good advice.
I found that knowing some SQL*Plus and SQL Developer was also very helpful as, they both provide a way to interface with the database and try the things you read about. For SQL Plus, I used the book:
Oracle SQL*Plus: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition
By Jonathan Gennick
Publisher : O'Reilly
ISBN : 0-596-00746-9 I openly recommend it. It is easy to read, the book is very well thought out, it covers what you really need to know (and more too). The author explains the subjects very well. I would definitely learn some SQL Plus and SQL developer before getting into the 2 Day DBA document (make those 2 days about 7 days each if not more).
To learn SQL, I "sort of" used (I say "sort of" because I only read some parts of it available online and at the local bookstore):
Oracle SQL by Example
By Alice Rischert
Publisher: Prentice Hallit probably has more SQL than you'd need as a DBA but, it is an excellent book you may want to consider.
If you are starting from scratch, as I did, you'll find that you need to learn multiple things at the same time. I believe SQL Plus is the best place to start, along with possibly the Concepts document. That will give you a base to build upon.
HTH,
John.

SirajSiraj,
I second to Someoneelse's reply that you must start with that product version which is supported now and will be supported in the future , atleast for some time. This includes both 10g , 11g and both are freely available for download at http://otn.oracle.com.
That said, for anyone who is starting with Oracle, one must bookmarked site is , http://tahiti.oracle.com. This is Oracle's documentation which is free and very helpful. Out of this, in the first place, you should start reading Concepts Guide. This would make you understand what Oracle is and how it works. But, docs can be very boring and long to read so besides this, I shall recommend to buy these 2 books ,
http://www.amazon.com/Expert-One-Oracle-Thomas-Kyte/dp/1861004826
http://www.amazon.com/Expert-Oracle-Database-Architecture-Programming/dp/1590595300/ref=pd_sim_b_2
Both are by Thomas Kyte. These books will help you in getting an overall picture with some very good insight which at times, is missing from docs. Besides all this, this forum is always there where you can bring your doubts.

"Which career is most rewarding one in terms of . . . Least amount of work"
"which career will be . . . easy to learn"
Since "easy" and "least work" seem important to you, I'd suggest a career in something besides IT. I could make some specific suggestions but run the risk of insulting people who work in those areas.

3 weeks into learning Oracle, and I think I am ready for the next step.

Hi all,
I am in need of some suggestions. I have been learning oracle for almost 4 weeks now, and I need to design a database with some real world functionality. I want it to be fairly difficult so that I am able to learn things by being "thrown to the wolves" so to speak. I will be designing it from scratch basically: requirements gathering, ERD and Normalization, Table creation, and then implementing functionality in increments. I know that is a lot on my plate, but I'm sure I can do it with the amount of resources and documentation there is available.
First things first, I will be using Oracle 10g XE as the database software. I am trying to determine what kind of database I want to design though. I really would like to stay away from the traditional/generic databases, if you know what I mean. Or if it is one of the popular starter DBs, then something with a twist maybe. Here is one of the things I have thought about, hopefully some of you guys that respond can shoot some more ideas at me:
Corporate Inventory database for a company that does a lot of field service work with local parts, but would sometimes require parts to be shipped from other locs:
DB would track inventory for all offices throughout company.
Basic users could only view inventory for each office.
Mid-level users could add/remove items at their local office, and request items to be shipped from other offices.
Management-users could add/remove items, request items, and would be able to approve any pending inventory transfers.
DBA - The administrator, can add new users, remove users, and all the other power that comes with being a DBA.
Does something like this seem like a good project? I would be able to address concurrency, error handling (with codes), multiple user types, etc.
Can somebody suggest a front-end for this?
I was thinking to maybe make a JSP/JSF web based service (to be run locally at first) for all of the forms and such and then use the Oracle XE for the back-end. Does anybody think there is something more suitable?
Also, if anybody can think of another DB system to design that may be better to learn from or more interesting, please suggest it.
Best regards to all those positive community members,
Jason

I would like to take this project slow, I mean I do not plan on having this be a working application in 2 weeks. I would like to slowly develop it and move on to each step after the previous step is understood.
Such as, first start by understanding what tables and keys I will be needing in order to have a database which tracks inventory. Then create users that only have certain privileges. Then start to slowly create the functions/procedures and triggers that will be used to perform certain transactions on the database, starting with the most simple ones first. Finally decide on a front-end that will be best for allowing users to perform transactions in a friendly interface.
By no means do I think this is simple, but I do believe if I approach it correctly I can learn a lot. I was basically just hoping the experienced users in this community could help me understand the best approach and some basic ideas I may need to understand about developing a project like this.

I want to learn oracle

Hello,
For Oracle Applications there is another forum:
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=11
For Learning Oracle Application Server, I'd start with the Oracle Documentation:
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/index.htm
Look at the "Getting Started" Tab with all of the Quick Installation Guides for your platform. Learn what the different types of installations are and figure out what you need to do what you want.
Once you have an installation and have the basics, there is a certification track for Oracle Application Server that may be a good way to organize your learning.

Deepak,
There is no free lunch anywhere in this world, and the same is true for the training as well of Oracle modules. If you can't get time out to attend an Instructor based training, you have two choices,
1) Self Study CD Roms Oracle offers the trainining in a self paced learning format with CD Roms which have all whatis needed to make one start and grow with the learning of a specific module. You can check which module you need and can order the cd rom for that. Learn more about this from here,
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=35
2) Live Virtual Class This is the newest standard that Oracle has introduced in the training formats. As the name suggests, this is a class which is surely taught by an instructor only but this doens't need you to come and attend a course at a specific location , for example at Oracle's education office. You can attend the prorgam while being at your home/office as well. It offers rich video/audio expereince which doesn't make you feel that you are just learning sitting in front of a computer. Learn more about it from here,
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=233
That said, both the options mentioned above are NOT free and there is NO free event happening anywhere which goes from the start to finish of a module. There are some small web events but they can't be called a training class as there are just some topics discussed in them. So once again, don't look for free lunch, its not there anywhere.
