Product Description
Wireless LANs, Radio Frequency Identification. OpenURL. Chances are you've heard these terms. But could you link them to their definitions on Jeopardy? Librarians are affected by technology in every aspect of their jobs, yet they often have little understanding of the technologies underlying the systems they use every day. Such a situation, according to Nancy Courtney, is untenable. Every librarian, no matter how "low-tech" his or her position, needs a basic understanding of computer technologies. To this end, she has assembled an impressive cast of contributors to discuss some of the more essential concepts and tenets in simple terms. Their combined intent is not to turn unsuspecting readers into IT practitioners, but to improve their technological literacy about topics currently of interest in the library community so that they can communicate effectively with systems personnel, their users and their funding authorities. If you are a librarian, and your primary job responsibilities are not in information technology, this book is for you!

Product Description
Written by a Sybase insider who is one of the original architects of the Replication Server, this authoritative handbook shows enterprise computing professionals how to design, implement, test, and maintain distributed systems, based on the Sybase Replication Server (RS). Beginning with an overview of the RS, Charles B. Clifford moves on to cover such vital issues as conflict avoidance and resolution, system security, disaster recovery, and maintenance. Clifford also includes important information on functions, function strings, and function string classes; the Log Transfer Manager; replication definitions and subscriptions; stable queues; and managing changes to a deployed RS system. In addition, four fully developed case studies are presented, including an example illustrating a wireless setup of the RS.

Excellent, detailed, but what about an update for RS 12.0? by .. Philip C. Adams (Dallas, Texas)
If you are looking for a detailed, comprehensive book on rep srvr, are in the middle of implementing a complex rep environment, or don't have time to take the classes, this book is an EXCELLENT resource. Mr. Clifford's target audience is those already reasonably versed in Rep (I am a former Sybase Prof. Services consultant & Sybase Education instructor). Sybase's manuals are generalized to some degree whereas Mr. Clifford's book provides the level of detail necessary to understand this complex topic without being excessively verbose. The writing style is clear and to the point. Keep in mind that this was written in 1995 and ASE and RS have changed since then. What are the chances for a 2nd edition for RS 12.0?
A reasonably good book but is not a primer by .. ()
I got this book before I attended the Sybase Replication Server course and I found it hard to understand the concepts and explanations in the book. I re-read this book after I have attended the Sybase course and found that it is easier to understand. It's a good book to have if you are still using Replication Server 11.0. Things are slightly different in versions 11.5 and above. If you want another book to suppliment the Sybase manuals, this is a reasonably good book (not that you have many choices).
Waste of Money

The level of detail is wrong from start to finish. It's too detailed to give you a good introduction to replication architecture. It's too general to be useful for hands-on work. There's a market out there for a real replication primer; too bad this isn't it.
Save your money by .. Wai Kiong Choy ()
I bought this "primer" book because I thought it can help me to understand the Sybase Replication Server better. But this book is difficult to read and understand. You can learn much more from the Sybase manuals that come with the Replication Server. Sadly, this is the only Sybase Replication Server book which is available commercially. But it will get you no where. Save your money.
I regret buying this book by .. Ashish Gupta (Tokyo)
I wanted a book on sybase replication server and bought this book since this was the only one available.
I found the Sybase supplied manuals to be easier than this book. teh course which sybase offers is also good.
I regret buying this book
