| Tip of the Week: |
| The main usage of this tip is to help clarify by example the use of Oracle's virtual private database by an application server account. Most examples and documentation by Oracle show how VPDs can restrict access to data based on your user account when you login to the Oracle database. The problem with app servers is that you login to the app server with your login but the app server accesses the database as the app server account so all users would appear to login to the database as the app server account and the VPD cannot differentiate individual app users. The tip shows how to pass a session ID from the App to the database allowing the use of VPD. |
