Oracle Database 2 Day + Data Warehousing Guide is for anyone who wants to perform common day-to-day warehousing tasks with Oracle Database. The main prerequisites are to have read through Oracle Database 2 Day DBA and to have a basic knowledge of computers.

In particular, this guide is targeted toward the following groups of users:

• Oracle DBAs wanting to acquire data warehouse administrative skills

• DBAs who have some data warehouse background but are new to Oracle

Documentation Accessibility

Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible to all users, including users that are disabled. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers. For more information, visit the Oracle Accessibility Program Web site at http://www.oracle.com/accessibility/.
