This material is very necessary for any DBA that does tuning. Craig's personality keeps the information rolling and prevented the "glazing" factor. [The methods presented] seem to be a very fast and efficient method for database tuning. Paul Crabb, CH2mHill
I want to thank you for a really enjoyable course, extremely well delivered/communicated, with excellent technical content and exercises. I can see real practical uses for the information, tools, techniques and methods that you have imparted. Tim Sutton, Morse
This course gives a lot of detail about Oracle internals. It is useful to any serious DBA who wants to learn more about how Oracle works! Uday Lad, Bristol-Myers Squibb
Also, I'd never been completely satisfied with the "unfocusedness" of my prior troubleshooting approach (lessee...maybe sessions are being blocked...no, that's not it...maybe someone is running a honker SQL statement...no, that's not it...) and I'm confident that the knowledge gained in the class will improve my efforts immensely. Jeff Markham, First Health
The manner in which you described how Oracle actually works was like seeing a puzzle being put together. This was the best class I have attended since becoming a DBA 5 years ago. Nicholas, Trincia, ChristianCare
Very compreshensive. John Todd, Oracle
This class made the idea of whole system performance very clear. It's not just Oracle, or the application, or the O/S, it's all of them! I liked the layout of the course sections and how the tables, examples, and discussions reinforced the ideas and concepts. Dean Steadman, Requisite Technology
Excellent depth of detail and excellent scope. Rick Poepping, BJC Healthcare
The course not only gives you tools and a deeper understanding of Oracle database performance issues, but it provides an excellent methodology for diagnosing ANY performance problems, whether their root cause is the database, the application, or the operating system. Corey Horton, Motive
Your Reactive course gave me...a framework to perform analysis and present results...experience using real world experiences...confidence that this is neither magic or rocket science......getting the answer can be done rapidly and accurately. Tim Sutton, Morse
