Oracle Portal allows you to "Webify" a database, as well as to create a general-purpose portal for your users.The ideas and techniques from this book helped me get a database of mine onto the Web quickly and efficiently.Everything you'll need is there, from the initial installation of the product, to on-going administration of your portal(s).In between is a thorough treatment of what should be done to facilitate browser-based access to your data.The book doesn't just dump syntax on you.It explains what portals are, and how to plan for one before building it.Key features of the Oracle product are explained clearly, first at a high level, so that you will later understand what you're doing when it gets to "click here, and type there."And, when it does get down to the lowest-level details, the book reflects the care that the authors must have taken to ensure accuracy.
All-in-all, a thorough treatment that should be indispensable to new Portal developers, while still offering value to all but the most advanced and experienced ones.
