A three-book set for absolute beginners who want to become dynamic web developers This three-book set combines the titles No-Code Oracle APEX For Thirteen To Ninety, SQL and PL/SQL For Everyone, and Oracle APEX 20 For Beginners. Together these three books will provide a solid foundation to anyone who has the desire to develop dynamic data-driven web applications quickly with no/low code features of Oracle APEX. Oracle APEX is a low-code application development framework. Low-code is a software development approach that enables the delivery of applications faster and with minimal hand-coding. Low-code framework helps you create complete applications visually with the help of drag-and-drop interface and wizards. Rather than writing thousands of lines of complex code and syntax, low-code platforms allow you to build complete applications with modern user interfaces, integrations, data and logic quickly and visually. Oracle APEX is one such area. You can use Oracle APEX free of charge - either as part of an existing Oracle Database license or running in the free Oracle Database 18c XE product. Oracle APEX empowers you to build incredible apps and solve real problems. And you won't need to become an expert in a vast array of web technologies, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript and more. Oracle APEX is capable to do the heavy lifting for you. You just need to focus on the problem to be solved. The book No-Code Oracle APEX For Thirteen To Ninety - Build Your First Web App without Writing a Single Line of Code is for anyone who wants to become a web developer but is scared of writing tons of code and is looking for the easiest track to start with. I compiled this book for everyone (especially teens) to make web application development fun for them rather than a nightmare. The SQL and PL/SQL languages are too voluminous and exposure of every aspect of these huge languages is a very tedious task. Keeping aside the least utilized features, the book SQL and PL/SQL For Everyone is rolled out to focus on the more operational areas of the language. It is meant to help you learn SQL and PL/SQL quickly by yourself. It follows a tutorial approach wherein hundreds of hands-on exercises are provided, augmented with illustrations, to teach you SQL and PL/SQL in a short period of time. Oracle APEX 20 For Beginners is my eleventh book on Oracle Application Express (APEX) written for the latest version. Just like my previous books that exposed the technology to thousands around the globe, this next-level book is also aimed at beginners who wish to learn from self-paced professional guidance and need a solid foundation in Oracle APEX.

This book shows developers and Oracle professionals how to build practical, non-trivial web applications using Oracle’s rapid application development environment – Application Express (APEX).

A poorly performing database application not only costs users time, but also has an impact on other applications running on the same computer or the same network. SQL Tuning provides an essential next step for SQL developers and database administrators who want to extend their SQL tuning expertise and get the most from their database applications.There are two basic issues to focus on when tuning SQL: how to find and interpret the execution plan of an SQL statement and how to change SQL to get a specific alternate execution plan. SQL Tuning provides answers to these questions and addresses a third issue that's even more important: how to find the optimal execution plan for the query to use.Author Dan Tow outlines a timesaving method he's developed for finding the optimum execution plan--rapidly and systematically--regardless of the complexity of the SQL or the database platform being used. You'll learn how to understand and control SQL execution plans and how to diagram SQL queries to deduce the best execution plan for a query. Key chapters in the book include exercises to reinforce the concepts you've learned. SQL Tuning concludes by addressing special concerns and unique solutions to "unsolvable problems."Whether you are a programmer who develops SQL-based applications or a database administrator or other who troubleshoots poorly tuned applications, SQL Tuning will arm you with a reliable and deterministic method for tuning your SQL queries to gain optimal performance.
