Oracle fundamentals course

In this 3-day ABIS course, the basic characteristics of the Oracle database system are thoroughly explained and practically practiced. Extremely useful for anyone who will eventually work with Oracle - analysts, developers, administrators, .... Classroom presentation, interactive! Prior knowledge of SQL is recommended.

The Oracle database system is widely used in larger and smaller organisations; sometimes as a black-box system to which no one has access. But in most cases fortunately as a data source used by application developers. A database administrator provides systems management, access control, auditing, performance analysis. Regardless of your job and background, basic knowledge of the Oracle system is required to work with it effectively!

  • examines the physical and logical Oracle objects, and their relationship;
