Title: This one stays on the shelf
Review: I usually write reviews only when I love a book, but I'll make an exception this time. There aren't a whole lot of third-party Informix books, and my employer was paying, so I pretty much bought all the obvious ones. Joe Lumbley's "Informix DBA Survival Guide" is always on my desk, Glenn Miller's "Informix Basics" is handy if I have a basic question, and Elizabeth Suto's "Informix Performance Tuning" is invaluable (it's actually not a bad one to read first because the explanations of the architecture and key concepts are so concise and clear). But this one lives on the shelf. It's way shorter than it looks (big type font), and whatever I need to know about is usually not in the index.I hate to criticize authors because I are one, and I know how much effort goes into a book, but this one just doesn't do it for me.
