Summary Annotation <p style="MARGIN: 0px">Refactoring has proven its value in a wide range of development projectshelping software professionals improve system designs, maintainability, extensibility, and performance. Now, for the first time, leading agile methodologist Scott Ambler and renowned consultant Pramodkumar Sadalage introduce powerful refactoring techniques specifically designed for database systems.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">Ambler and Sadalage demonstrate how small changes to table structures, data, stored procedures, and triggers can significantly enhance virtually any database designwithout changing semantics. Youll learn how to evolve database schemas in step with source codeand become far more effective in projects relying on iterative, agile methodologies.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">This comprehensive guide and reference helps you overcome the practical obstacles to refactoring real-world databases by covering every fundamental concept underlying database refactoring. Using start-to-finish examples, the authors walk you through refactoring simple standalone database applications as well as sophisticated multi-application scenarios. Youll master every task involved in refactoring database schemas, and discover best practices for deploying refactorings in even the most complex production environments.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">The second half of this book systematically covers five major categories of database refactorings. Youll learn how to use refactoring to enhance database structure, data quality, and referential integrity; and how to refactor both architectures and methods. This book provides an extensive set of examples built with Oracle and Java and easily adaptable for other languages, such as C#, C++, or VB.NET, and other databases, such as DB2, SQL Server, MySQL, and Sybase.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">Using this books techniques and examples, you can reduce waste, rework, risk, and costand build database systems capable of evolving smoothly, far into the future.</p>
