For courses in Database Administration, Linux, and Database Systems. In MySQL, Paul DuBois provides students with a comprehensive guide to one of the most popular relational database systems. Paul has contributed to the online documentation for MySQL, and is an active member of the MySQL community. The principal MySQL developer, Monty Widenius, and a network of his fellow developers reviewed the manuscript, providing Paul with the kind of insight no one else could supply. Instead of merely giving students a general overview of MySQL, Paul teaches them how to make the most of its capabilities. Through two sample database applications that run throughout the book, he gives students solutions to problems they're sure to face. He helps them integrate MySQL efficiently with third-party tools, such as PHP and Perl, enabling them to generate dynamic Web pages through database queries. He teaches them to write programs that access MySQL databases, and also provides a comprehensive set of references to column types, operators, functions, SQL syntax, MySQL programming, C API, Perl DBI, and PHP API. MySQL simply gives you the kind of information you won't find anywhere else.

The unexpected pleasure of reading books about databases is that they are often written by authors with highly organized minds. Paul DuBois and his editors at New Riders have assembled MySQL with a clarity and lucidity that inspires confidence in the subject matter: a (nearly) freely redistributable SQL-interpreting database client/server primarily geared for Unix systems but maintained for Windows platforms as well. What isn't "free" about MySQL (the application) is its server's commercial use; all clients and noncommercial server use are free. DuBois's tome isn't free either, but its list price is modest in light of its value and the value of its namesake.
The volume is superbly organized into 12 chapters and 10 appendices and contains a concise table of contents and a comprehensive 50-page index. It is peppered with references to the online HTML documentation that comes with the source and binary distributions (which are available and easy to install in stable rpm and tar releases.)
The first third of MySQL is an excellent instruction tool for database newbies; the second third is a detailed reference for MySQL developers; and the last third consists of clearly annotated appendices, including C, Perl (but not Python), and PHP interfaces.
Perhaps as an indication of the collective will of the developers of MySQL, DuBois does not separate Windows 95/98/NT design or development specifics from its main discussions. Platform-independent design is a goal, not a reality, and users will have to rely on newsgroups and mailing lists for details. Moreover, security issues are addressed in a mere 18 pages, a large part of which is devoted to standard Unix file and network-access permissions. Next to nothing is mentioned about defense against common hacking strategies, the use of secure shell interfaces, or access encryption.
Although it is nearly 800 pages in length, DuBois's book is thankfully not encyclopedic. It is a valuable précis of the MySQL database, and its easy-to-skim look and feel will make it an excellent browse for database experts who want to know what is and is not possible within MySQL, the application. --Peter Leopold

Dieses Buch war für mich der Einstieg in
MySQL. Es bietet verständliche Beispiele
in Perl und PHP, welche ich erfolgreich
umsetzen konnte. Die Programmiersprache
C in Zusammenarbeit mit MySQL wird auch
behandelt, wobei ich diese Beispiele nicht
probiert habe.

Nützlich war das Buch für mich auch als
Nachschlagewerk bei Lösungen von Problemen
bzw. bei der Suche nach Ideen und auch
für die Administration von verschiedenen
Usern die auf einem Server mit verschiedenen
Accounts auf MySQL Datenbanken zugreifen.

I've been using MySQL and PHP for a few months already when I got this book based on all the GLOWING reviews here at Amazon but I was somewhat disappointed upon getting it because I realized there was little information the book that I could not have gleaned from the docs that came with MySQL plus other online resources. If you're the type who prefers 'hand-holding' you will probably like this book however if you're a fairly hardcore techie guy who can get by with just a reference and a simple tutorial, you will find this book redundant

Von JueDan
Dieses Buch ist wirklich für alle MySQL-User/Administratoren zu empfehlen. Es beschreibt auf leicht verständliche und nachvollziehbare Weise alle Tasks rund um MySQL. Dabei werden die Unterschiede zwischen Windows/Unix nicht außer Acht gelassen!
Die dreiteilige Gliederung macht das Buch sehr übersichtlich.
Im ersten Teil werden alle Eigenschaften von MySQL beschrieben, wobei auch auf die Sprache SQL eingegangen wird. Im zweiten Abschnitt sind API-Dokumentationen zu C, Perl und PHP ausführlich behandelt und schließlich im letzten Bereich geht der Autor auf die Administration eines MySQL-Server ein, wobei Sicherheitsaspekte berücksichtigt werden!
Fazit: die fünf Sterne sind gerechtfertigt!
