DITA: Four Letters You Need to Know� Adaptable � The Topic DTD is similar to HTML in that it specifies a set of generic elements each with different formatting such as titles, paragraphs and lists. To adapt the Topic DTD to your specific needs, DITA defines a mechanism called "specialization" that allows you to define new tags that inherit their behavior and properties from tags in Topic. Specialization allows downstream applications that are DITA-aware to handle an unknown tag by treating it as the tag from which it inherits its properties. For example, you could create a tag called "Procedure" that inherits from "Ordered List" and a tag called "Step" that inherits from "List Item." Although you may want to add specific processing for Procedure and Step to your application, a DITA-aware application that knows nothing about these tags would handle Procedure and Step as if they were Ordered List and List Item instead. For instance, a DITA-aware publishing application that knows nothing about Step would format it as if it were a List Item. Knowing the definition of DITA does not give you enough background for understanding its implications. So now let's start the story. As with XML itself, DITA embodies a few simple that have profound implications.

SQL Query Tuning for Oracle: Getting It Right the First TimeIntroduction As part of my job as a Senior DBA with Confio Software, I get to review Oracle database performance data with hundreds of customers a year. During the review process I provide performance improvement recommendations based on the response time data from Confio's performance analysis tool, Ignite for Oracle. However, I also try to go above and beyond the raw data to provide valuable performance tuning tips for our customers. Over the years, the DBAs at Confio have developed a process that works time and time again. This process is the focus of this white paper and follows four fundamental steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. Focus on the correct SQL statements Utilize response time analysis Gather accurate execution plans Use SQL diagramming Why Focus on SQL Statements When I think about performance tuning for a database environment, the following three types of tuning approaches come to mind: Application Tuning � tune the application code to process data more efficiently. Instance Tuning � tune Oracle itself via modification of database parameters or altering the environment in which the database executes. SQL Statement Tuning � tune the SQL statements used to retrieve data. The third approach, SQL seems to be a point of contention with many of our customers because it is often unclear which group (database administration or development) is responsible.

Total Economic Impact Of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application PlatformIn August 2009, Red Hat commissioned Forrester Consulting to examine the total economic impact and potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by deploying JBoss Enterprise Application Platform. JBoss Enterprise Application Platform includes open source technologies for building, deploying, and hosting enterprise Java applications and services. This study illustrates the financial impact of implementing JBoss Enterprise Application Platform for mission-critical applications by an organization that provides integrated voice and data communications. Forrester found that the organization reduced its operating costs by cutting spending on annual maintenance and support for its Java platform and improved its IT productivity, resulting in shorter product-introduction times and increased revenue. From the information provided in extensive interviews and model reviews, Forrester constructed a TEI framework for organizations considering implementation of JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and analyzed the subject organization's experience using that model. The objective of the framework is to identify the cost, benefit, flexibility, and risk factors that impact the investment decision. In August 2009, Red Hat commissioned Forrester Consulting to examine the total economic impact and potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by deploying JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.

Easing the Migration to Microsoft SQL Server 2005Countless companies want to take advantage of Microsoft� SQL Server 2005 and its notable business and technology benefits. However, with the prevalence of large, complex and sprawling information technology (IT) infrastructures, many organizations are wary of--or avoid altogether--the time, expense and effort required for a mass overhaul of their database environment. The task of SQL Server 2005 migration need not be as difficult, time consuming or costly as one might anticipate. HP includes a migration toolset as part of the HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server--that can significantly ease the configuration and deployment of SQL Server 2005. By dramatically reducing the complexity of migration and slashing deployment time by up to 66%--in addition to inherent infrastructure consolidation and management benefits that pay dividends well beyond the upgrade--the HP PolyServe Migration Manager often justifies the cost of the changeover by the time the switch is flipped. There are many business and technological reasons for making the move to SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. In tandem with 64-bit computing platforms, SQL Server 2005 can boost performance by 30% in certain instances, deliver a better database management structure and bolster infrastructure security. In addition, it helps IT improve data reporting, perform complex queries more rapidly, support more users, and run mission-critical applications faster.
