Summary
In this chapter, you looked at some examples that demonstrate why it is critical for an Oracle application developer to know about Oracle’s features and the Oracle architecture. You learned some important Oracle concepts, such as multiversion read consistency, undo, redo, and so on, that should whet your appetite and motivate you to learn more about Oracle. You also learned why mastering SQL and PL/SQL is crucial in achieving your goal of being an effective JDBC programmer. You may need to put in some additional effort to learn more about the concepts touched on in this chapter from the many references I gave throughout. In the next chapter, you will consider the JDBC API and write your first JDBC program.
