This e-book contains over 1,100 pages of information that establish a
new paradigm for the integrated Enterprise Data Architecture.  It is a
practical reference for the information technology professional.
Organized hierarchically and amplified by more than 750 illustrations,
it contains database and data warehouse concepts, techniques, data,
process and object models, components, patterns, processes and views.
There are downloadable example and installable database prototypes,
PowerPoint presentations, database viewer, query library and data
quality analysis and data migration tools.

Let's hope shift happens.  ;-)

    I heard you snarl when "flat-file database" was called.  You
probably missed that one.

OK!!!! That's enough old witches !!! I shall play for once devil's
advocate with what I hope shall torture your academical ears in the
following lines.  ....So here I come....

--Critics of Parker's book
Parker's book is a true *revolution* in thinking.  Parker has
developped a *model* which is also a *paradigm shift* in the way we
perceive *data* in the database.  It does fit more precisely today's
systems needs and helps avoid the problem of *impedance mismatch*
common on relational databases products such as Oracle, SQL Server and
DB2.   Parker's model is recognized ISO 9010 and is spoken of by ANSI
committee as
"The next great thing since the relational model became obsolete....
(D.Parek  PhD - ANSI Comittee)

In terms of *methodology* Parker's rules and revolutionnary taxonomy
guarantees the *practicality* of the systems and making sure that your
data's assets won't be between the sole hands of a DBA that bothers
everybody with theoretical unpractical and obsolete stuff such as the
relational model.

Reading and Implementing Parker's book's secrets (such as how to truly
make your database systems truly XML- compliant and friendly) for a
mere 60$ value will change your life and bring success to your
company.

Amen...

Very good, but only a B+. You didn't say "object", "post-relational"
or "agile". Your second para could end, (delete from "making sure..."
onwards) "liberating your data assets from remote and uncooperative
DBAs to encourage agile development in post-relational environments at
the object level modern developers expect".

Not that I'm feeling cynical today, not at all.

Sigh. [He says reminiscing about the days when ignorant HR people tossed
away any resume that didn't have "client server" on it. It was a simpler
time.]

All right.  post-object-relational sounds even better.

    It is OK, I suppose, but Cimode's work was custom.

I love the favicon: Computer Associates' old logo reflected.  Apt.

Too big a word for you?  How about "example?"

If you have nothing to contribute, don't.

This is too good to be true!!  :-)   I couldn't have dug your hole deeper if
I'd tried.

I am not surprised you don't think it was a contribution, but it made my
life infinitesimally better.
