Paula - My impression is that the data architecture arena is now split
between OLTP (normalized) and DW (star schema), with different mindsets
accordingly. The best resource for normalized data modeling that I have
found is:
The Data Modeling Handbook by Michael C. Reingruber and William W. Gregory
For Star schema I think Ralph Kimball is the place to start.

Interested in data architecture issues beyond a particular RDBMS (sorry guys
just have to be) and I was wondering if anyone had any good resources:

-listservers 
-conferences (what are the best for a ltd. budget) 
-good books/articles/magazines 

I just received a request about 

"The Next Big Thing Panel was part of the Wilshire Meta-Data Conference and
DAMA International Symposium - the world's largest and most authoritative
vendor-neutral data management conference. If you missed this event and
would like to order the documentation, please visit the conference home
page."

Anyone know if this is worth going to?  It looks very interesting. 

Thanks, 
Paula

   It would help if we knew what you were trying to achieve. Is this some 
type of security solution? My guess is that the oracle binary will get 
Oracle started, but maybe it would be simplest if you just tried it. I will 
warn you of one thing. If the oracle binary isn't setuid to root, you get a 
situation where only the Oracle user can execute it.

Hello All, 

I am curious to know what are the executables that are 
used when we say startup/shutdown of oracle database 
on Sun box. 

I think it is $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle 

are there any other executables/kernel files 
(important) in bin or in anyother areas. 

Can somebody throw somelight ??/ 

Thanks in advance, 
Srinivas
