The following bibliography is culled from the second edition of my book, Database Administration: The Complete Guide to DBA Practices and Procedures. This listing of books was used as research material for the book, but also as suggested further reading for interested readers to dig into.
I have made no attempt to update this list, so there are likely to be quite a few new books that would be useful. At some point, I will probably post a list of books published after my DBA book that I recommend. Until then, enjoy this list…
