Concise
As many people, when I first got the book I marveled at the size and thought upon myself that a book this large is going to take a long time to read. Realistically I've breezed through it rather rapidly and feel very confident facing the DBA certification. Unlike most I did also read the other Certification Exam's part as my primary job role is a developer I plan to attain both Certifications. Both sections were concise and precise, I learned quite a bit that I had thought I already knew enough about. I would highly recommend this book to anybody with at least some solid foundations in SQL and MySQL.
Read It thoroughly and ur certified
Well I've been using Mysql for the last 5 years now and got to say that I already had pretty good hold on it. But through this book I came across numerous interesting things that I was unaware of and no prizes for guessing that I cleared the exam with ease. The book has each and every detail of topics that are asked in the exam and hence is a must for anyone looking to give the exam
Vouchers no longer printed with book
This is the book for MySQL CMDBA, CMDEV, and CMA certifications!
But please note we do not include vouchers for the exams in the latest printing.
Comprehensive Study Guide
If you need the information to study for the MySQL dev and dba exams, this is the book. It covers most everything, but it is more of a manual than a book covering the subject. So although it covers all the material (and then some), it isn't a comfy read.
Good book
I like this book. It's easy, clear, and absolutely suitable for new guys to MySQL and preparing for taking the MySQL DBA test.
