The Oracle SCM Handbook
Why do SCM at all?

Ken Atkins and Mark Kramm are in the process of writing a new book titled The Oracle SCM Handbook. This will be the first book entirely dedicated to Oracle's Software Configuration Management product.

Some of the topics to be included in the book are:

• Installation & Configuration of the SCM Repository

• Work Area Definition and Management
• Configuration Definition and Management
• Using Oracle SCM for Oracle Designer Objects

• Using Oracle SCM with Oracle Developer

• Merging Objects and Applications
• SCM Repository Tuning and Administration
