Good book on databases for beginners Possible Duplicate:
  Must-read Books for DBA  




I'm already reading a book on Introduction to SQL (RDMS). But that only teaches SQL and commands and I feel like my knowledge lacks in database management. Can you recommend me a good book to Database management which teaches about managing the databases instead of just using the queries to get something done?
It really depends on which flavor of RDBMS you're working with.  Oracle database management is significantly different from SQL Server database management, for instance.

I answered a similar question recently here, but one of the best (Oracle) DBA books that I've read is Darl Kuhn's Pro Oracle Database Administration.  I used it as a textbook in graduate school, and it covers everything from install, config, backups, partitioning, etc, as well as common real-life problems and their solutions.

I wouldn't classify it as being for "beginners", but I had never had any database management before either, and I did ok.
