xDevLibrary Announces New Xojo Database Collection Ebook

July 2020 – xDevLibrary is delighted to announce the release of a massive new book targeted at Xojo database users. The “Xojo Database Collection” is a 400-page ebook that gathers 18 years of xDev Magazine database columns into one volume.

Just about every issue of xDev Magazine has included a column on databases. In that column we go in-depth on many aspects of database use, from design to performance. There are tutorials on how to use key features to philosophical discussion on various techniques. There have also been articles on different databases, their advantages and disadvantages, and how to use them with Xojo.

Though many of these articles are old and some coding syntax has changed in more recent versions of Xojo, the basic concepts are timeless and invaluable.

Some of the topics covered include:

  • Analyzing Performance
  • Backup and Recovery Approach
  • Best Backup Practices
  • Big Data
  • Connecting Databases
  • Database Bindings
  • Database Concurrency Strategies
  • Database Design
  • Database Rules
  • Database Servers
  • Database Standards
  • Database Versioning
  • Design Patterns
  • Disaster Recovery
  • Enterprise Data Modeling Tools
  • Hadoop
  • Multi-User Applications

  • Performance Tips
  • PostgreSQL
  • Prepared Statements
  • Reporting
  • SQL
  • SQL Management Tools
  • Stored Procedures
  • Triggers and Views

  • Plus Much More!

We’ve gathered nearly two decades of these database columns into a single book of over 400 pages. If you’re new to Xojo or a veteran, this is a terrific resource.

The ebook is in PDF, EPUB, and Mobi (Kindle) formats and can be purchased for $19.99 via GumRoad for instant delivery (http://gum.co/oQnsl).
