Recommanded books
Only few books to recommend? Does it means that Sybase ASE manuals are so good there is no need for others to writte on Sybase themes...?
Or I just couldn't find other books?
- "Tips, Tricks & Recipes for Sybase ASE 2nd edition" , by Sybase evangelist and guru, Rob Verschoor. Very good written, covers ineresting subjects. I find it very enjoyable for reading.
- "Administrator's Guide to Sybase 15" , by Jeffrey Ross Garbus and Ashish Gupta. Good for starting and getting the main features and concepts of Sybase ASE.
- "A Practitioner's Guide to Upgrading to Sybase ASE 15" , by Mich Talebzadeh. Useful, with overview of new Sybase ASE 15 features, good examples and explanations, query trace analyzis, optdiag examples.
- "Sybase 15 Replication Server Administration" , by Saroj Kapoor Bagai and Jagan Bandi Reddy with Jeff Tallman. I have been tasked to set up Replication Server environment and this book helped me a lot.
- "SAP ASE 16 / Sybase ASE Administration" , by Jeffrey Garbus. New book, maybe the first to cover SAP ASE 16.
Interview preparations
I found some information, hope useful, for people preparing to be questioned by( KGB) Sybase recruiters or employers ;-)
