Summary This book provides an overview of every phase of administering a software application, from working with the vendor before installation, the installation process itself, importing data into the application, handling upgrades, optimizing applications, debuging applications and working with application users to report problems, scheduling backups, automating tasks that need to be done on a repetitive schedule, and finally retiring an application. It provides detailed, hands-on instructions on how to perform these tasks, including: installing, administering and maintaining key software applications throughout the product life cycle; steps that should be taken before installing or upgrading an application to ensure continuous operation; identifying repetitive tasks and finding out how they can be automated, thereby saving valuable time; and understanding the latest on government mandates and regulations, such as privacy, SOX, HIPAA, PCI, and FISMA and how to fully comply. -- Edited summary from book
