In this concise volume, we've attempted to give you a firm grounding in all the basic concepts you need to understand Oracle Application Server 10 g and begin to use it effectively. We hope we've accomplished this goal. At the same time, we realize that there is more to using a complex product such as Oracle Application Server than simply understanding how and why it works the way it does. Although you can't use Oracle Application Server without a firm grasp of the foundations of the product, you still need details if you're actually going to implement a successful system. This appendix lists two types of additional sources of information for the topics covered in this book ”relevant web sites, which act as a constantly changing resource for a variety of information, and a chapter-by-chapter list of relevant books, articles, and Oracle documentation. For the chapter-by-chapter list, the sources fall into two basic categories: Oracle documentation (both manuals and white papers) and third-party sources. Typically, the Oracle documentation provides the type of hands-on information you will need regarding syntax and keywords, and the third-party sources cover the topics in a more general and problem-solving way. We've listed the third-party sources first and ended each listing with the relevant Oracle documentation. Please keep in mind that Oracle Application Server isn't nearly as established or popular a product as the Oracle database, so there aren't as many sources of third-party information for the product at this time.
