Need Oracle DBA Job

Hi All,
This Karnan, i have finished BCA(Computer Application) 2008, and i did oracle9i DBA OCP,
I was not able to get into Oracle DBA as a fresher.
Finally Nov-2009, i got job in POLARIS SOFTWARE LAB ltd., as Software Tester.
I'm very much passion about in Oracle, i want to be a DBA only,
Please any one guide me how to get entered in ORACLE DBA as a fresher,
or let me know if you know about companys whho's hiring freshers for oracle.
Thanks,
Karnan Thambidurai

Well, I am not sure that how does this question fits in the database general forum in any ways. If it should be posted( please note the "if") , the most suitable place would the Community discussion forum.
I am not from HR background so please take my advice with grain of salt. When you would be working as a contractor, there would be two ways for this thing. One , you own your company so all the payments , invoices would be on your own company's name. If that's so, no issues. You can always show those invoices. The other way , using which the contract work is done is that you are hired by company X but you end up working for company Y. So company Y doesn't give you anything but your company X is supposed to give you whatever paper work is needed. So see if this is your case.
Whatever the thing may be, the HR of the next company won't stick to the pay slip only provided you can prove that you worked and the money you got for that work was a legal, taxable amount. As long as you can prove that by whatevre kind of document, you are good. That said, you haven't yet started and you are thinking about leaving too! At least do the job first for some time before you care about what the next company's Hr would say since you can always ask them all of these doubts.
Again, please note that Iam not from HR , never was or will be so all what I said is purely based on what I know how things work but any of my words are not at all authoritative.

Jr. DBA needs Senior DBA's Advice..!!

Dear all Senior DBA’s
I need you advice/suggestions.
I m Oracle9i DBA OCP Certified, Currently working as Assistant DBA. I m working in Oracle10g based Environment; it’s been around four months now, I m writing below my duties as DBA:
1.     There is checklist that I need to submit to IT Manager that shows the status of Oracle Services, Listeners, Archived Redo Log Numbers, Hot Backup & Export of Primary, Standby and Test Databases.
2.     I used to take the export of live user before updating the live database with Queries, Procedures, and Functions, forwarded by Software Engineering Department.
3.     I take the export of live database user and update the test database user with the latest dumps.
Other things I have learned:
4.     I learned how to configure Stand By database. It was test project for me, NOT a live project, but I learned a lot.
I have written all the steps in my blog:
http://rakeshocp.blogspot.com/2007/12/creating-stand-by-database-steps.html
5.     I was 9i Certified, and it is good learning for me to use 10g Database at Live environment.
6.     I have studied RAC, and waiting for Blade Servers, and green signal from Management, then I will learn Live RAC Project.
Now Confusion here is:
Once I check the CheckList, I wait for the work, but hardly get any kinda database related work, only I do execute scripts, and exports/imports. Is that the overall role of DBA besides implementing above mentioned projects?
I need your advice, I m willing to learn, but I don’t think I will be learning in the above DBA duties.
I want be a good/expert DBA.
Could you please advice/guide what should I do?

Hi Rakesh,
Is that the overall role of DBA besides implementing above mentioned projects?This is a great question, since the DBA job role has been expanding recently.
I have notes here:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_job_duties.htm
Also, see these notes on DBA duties:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_dba_job_skills.htm
System Analysis & Design skills – Many Oracle professionals must take an active role in the analysis and design of new database systems. Hence, knowledge of data flow diagrams, data dictionary techniques, CASE tools, Entity-relation modeling and design techniques, enhance the Oracle professional’s scope of ability.
· Database Design skills – Many Oracle jobs require knowledge of database normalization theory, STAR schema design, and data modeling techniques.
· Physical Disk Storage skills – Understanding of disk hardware architecture, RAID implementation, cache controllers, and disk load balancing are beneficial to any Oracle professional.
· Data Security skills – An understanding of relational database security including role-based security is useful, especially for US Government positions.
· Backup and Recovery skills – Many backup and recovery methods involve third-party software (Veritas, Legato, ADSM), and the candidate should have real-world experience implementing backup and recovery methods.
· Change Control Management skills – In many cases the Oracle professional is charged with the task of implementing change control and insuring that changes to the production database are properly coordinated. Knowledge of third-party change control tools such as the UNIX Source Code Control System (SCCS) is beneficial.

CS5 do I need a licence to sell my flash programs?

hi guys,
im new to CS5 but alot of my Action Script 3 tutorials and books require me to install it, (namely to create MovieClip files).
My question is I intend to write software using flash that I can then sell commercially but im confused as to what licence I would need to do that? or if my CS5 licence would need to be valid for as long as I sell my software.....
so far I have the trial version of CS5 Pro to continue coding but after reading this part of the user agreement (see below) it suggests that I cannot sell software with any 'output' files I produce during the 30 day trial... is this correct? what licence, if any, do I need to sell my flash programs created using CS5 Pro and will I need to keep it renewed once the program development is finished? thanks in advance.
2.1.2 The Software, or portions of the Software, that are provided with a serial number designated for “evaluation purposes” or other similar designation (such as Software or a serial number supplied as “EVAL” under a separate ordering document) and that includes an expiration date (“Evaluation Software”) may only be installed and used on Computers for demonstration, evaluation, and training purposes only and only if any Output Files or other materials produced through such use are used only for internal, non-commercial, and non-production purposes. The Evaluation Software will automatically time out with or without prior notice. You may not use such Evaluation Software after any applicable time-out period has ended, unless you input a valid serial number under Section 2.2. ACCESS TO AND USE OF ANY OUTPUT FILES CREATED WITH SUCH EVALUATION SOFTWARE IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Basically, if you pay for the software and activate it you're good to go. When you buy it, you are licensed to use it for the rest of your life for creating things for profit.
I am not a legal authority in these matters, but these discussions come up in the forums one in a while.

Need help with publishing multimedia ebook.

I'm about to publish a multimedia ebook that I would like to be available on laptops as well as multiple devices, iPads, tablets, etc. I like the interactivity of the iAuthor platform but then only those with iPads can read it? I need it to be available to a wider audience and available in different online stores. Should I publish in InDesign or iAuthor. Do I publish as a ebook or as an App. Anyone here involved in multimedia publishing. Very confusing.

If you try to 'publish' as an app, and you use the words ebook or just book, the review teams are likely to reject and tell you to do a book instead, so be prepared to not call it any type of book and to deliver something that showcases the device and iOS as best as you can if you take that route...it's non-trivial, mostly, so be prepared to learn any skills you may not have yet need going in.
Look at the book 'Yellow Submarine' for what I consider a good example of a standard epub w/m'media. it can be done, but as noted, iBA is iPad only, so....good luck.

Thanks

I think this is a simple answer . . . more and more data is collected. The need for DBAs will grow at a similar growth rate. I really watch how well storage market to get a feel of how the need for DBAs changes.
Heck HP announced http://www.techworld.com/news/index.cfm?newsID=12183&printerfriendly=1
odds are there is a database or media server or both using that storage.

EBook (EPUB) Publication FAQ

How much does it cost to publish an eBook?
If you are a do-it-yourself publisher, there is no cost to use our free tools to convert and/or publish your EPUB and PDF format eBooks. We will even provide you with a copy of our free eBook Creator Guide to assist you through the process.
If, however, you would like a little assistance, we offer several affordable eBook publishing packages.
How do I create an eBook in EPUB format?
Although this is the most frequently asked question about eBooks, it is also the most difficult one to answer concisely. Have a look at the following video tutorials to get an idea of what you will need to get started.
Video Tutorial: How to Publish an eBook on Lulu.com
Video Tutorial: How to Publish an eBook with the Best Table of Contents
Then download the eBook Creator Guide to use as a handy reference when preparing your manuscript for conversion to an eBook in EPUB format.
Overview: Steps to Create and Publish an eBook Project
Lulu’s Complete eBook Creator Guide
If you run into difficulties, don’t hesitate to search our community forums or post a question. One of our volunteer forum experts will be happy to assist you.
What types of files can I upload to convert to an eBook?
Before we can convert your manuscript to an eBook in EPUB file format, it must be saved as a properly formatted Microsoft Word (DOC or DOCX), Rich Text Format (RTF), or Open Office (ODT) file.
For more information about file types compatible for use in our EPUB converter, see Supported File Types.
Can I use the same file I uploaded for my print book to create my eBook?
You can certainly create a copy of your print book manuscript file to use as a starting point; however, eBooks are formatted very differently than their print book cousins.
Your original manuscript was probably created to closely resemble the format of a print book, which requires, margins, a table of contents, headers, footers, page numbers, page breaks, etc. eBooks, on the other hand, are composed of reflowable text, do not have pages as we think of them, and include an electronic table of contents allowing readers to navigate to sections or chapters.
For more information about formatting your manuscript, see Prepare Your Manuscript for eBook Conversion.
What is an eBook Marketing Image?
Think of the eBook Marketing Image as the eBook’s “cover.” It is the image shoppers see when browsing online for eBooks and on their eReader’s “bookshelf” when they purchase and download your work.
When creating and editing your Marketing Image, you should design the image to capture a shopper’s attention. The art and text should be clear, crisp, and easily read when viewed as a thumbnail.
The Marketing Image consists only of the front cover art, which should include the book title and author name. Unlike print books, there is no back cover or dust jacket flaps on an eBook cover that can be used to provide author information or a synopsis of your work. Therefore the Marketing Image could be the first, and last, impression a shopper has of your work.
The Marketing Image must be created to the following specifications:
Dimensions: at least 612 x 792 pixels (8.5” x 11” or 21.59 cm x 27.94 cm)
Resolution: 72dpi or higher to provide a clear image when viewed in multiple sizes
Do I need an ISBN for my eBook?
You do not need an International Standard Book Number (ISBN) if you only want to sell your eBook in the Lulu Marketplace.
You will need an ISBN if you want to sell your eBook on sites other than the Lulu Marketplace, such as the Kindle Store, the Apple iBookstore, the Kobo Store, and the Barnes & Noble NOOK® Bookstore.
Please Note: All eBooks published with an ISBN and set to a status of Private or General Access qualify for retail distribution. For more information about this process, see eBook Distribution FAQ.
Can I use the same ISBN for my eBook as I used for my print book?
No. The ISBN identifies the title, author, publisher, and format of a book. Therefore, a different ISBN is required for each format (hardcover, paperback, eBook, etc.).
How much should I charge for my eBook?
Only you know the worth of your work.
You can get an idea of a competitive price range by studying your intended market. How much are authors in your genre or area of expertise charging for their work? Do you have the same name recognition in your field? Are you just getting started as a writer and want to get your work into as many hands as possible? Is a print version of your book also available for purchase and if so, do you want to offer a discount on the eBook version?
Rather than answering your question with even more questions, here are few points to consider when pricing your eBook:
Lulu Marketplace
You can offer your eBook as a free download or sell it for any price greater than or equal to $0.99.
Important Note: The Lulu creator revenue split is calculated on income above $0.99. For example, if you charge $2.99 for your eBook, your income for each eBook sold in the Lulu Marketplace will be $1.80, which is 90% of $2.00. For the mathematically inclined: Lulu Marketplace eBook Creator Revenue = .90(price – $0.99)
iBookstore or Barnes & Noble NOOK® Bookstore:
Retail channels also have rules governing acceptable minimum and maximum list prices. Each channel may adjust your price to comply with their pricing policies. Use this eBook Retailer Price & Revenue Calculator to see what your eBook will sell for on these retailers' sites and estimate the revenue you will earn from each sale.
Amazon Kindle and Kobo Bookstores
Some retailers operate as resellers. This means they pay the wholesale price to a distributor when your eBook sells. Since these retailers are buying your book from a middleman at a set price, they can resell your eBook at any price they like, including a discounted price. Under the reseller model you will always make the same revenue as displayed in the retail pricing step for each book sold by that retailer, regardless of the sale price.
Once your eBook is published, you can view and edit your eBook's retail pricing and distribution options from the My Projects > Manage button.
IMPORTANT NOTES: When you select Kindle and/or Kobo distribution, Barnes & Noble converts to the reseller revenue model. At this time Amazon Kindle and Kobo distribution are not available to authors residing in Australia.
Why can’t I sell my PDF eBook on sites other than Lulu.com?
While PDFs are simple to create and great for reading on a large monitor or laptop screen, they are usually created as fixed text documents (i.e. the reader cannot choose the font or font size). As such, PDFs are not easily read on smaller screens such as those found on eReader devices.
Due to this limitation, our retail partners prefer eBooks in EPUB file format. These types of eBooks allow text to be optimized for all displays and reading on both large screens and small devices such as smartphones and eReaders.

Check this thread on how to create epub from ID.
Also, above right is a field that says "search forums". Type in 'epub' and you'll see a ton of threads.

(UPDATE: Clear to Close) First time seller, second time buyer - will I qualify?

I bought a house in June 2013 for $232k. We haven't put it on the market but have had an offer for it for $290k and we've seen something we like today for $370k. Current balance on the mortgage is $170k. Gross W2 income last year was $98k, and a little extra from my side business which I need to get from my accountant. I just bought the MyFico 3 score report and my mortgage scores are 739, 725 and 716. Regular Fico scores it says are 743, 752 and 740. So if I remember correctly from 2 years ago they use the middle score, so I'm thinking it'll be around 725? 20% down on $370k is 74,000. Brokers fees on my house should be around $17,400 leaving me with roughly $100k cash, subtracting a couple of grand for other fees. My credit card debt is zero, only other debt is an auto loan, balance is approx. $42k at 0% with a monthly payment of $670. So, as I've never sold a house before a) Does my math look roughly correct? and b) Do I look good for a new mortgage loan of $296k? Thanks.

I need some DBAs with good experience of oracle databases. My report topic is improving performance in databases.
There are a few questions below that I would like you to fill out! Please copy and paste the questions into an e-mail and e-mail the answers to [email protected] with subject: Oracle research
If you could also reply to this thread once you have sent the email so that it bumps the thread and also allows me to keep an eye on how good we are doing.
Thank you! and your time is much appreciated!

Performance in database applications is down to -
Application design, including logical data model
Application implementation
If these two are got right then putting it into any Oracle database with default parameters should require zero tuning.
Tuning on a regular basis suggests either the application design or implementation was sub-optimal, but "cannot be changed" or you are suffereing from Compulsive Tuning Disorder. In any event it is an exercise in twiddling futility.
