Estimating the term…
A system, method, and computer-readable medium that provide virtual user access to a database system are provided. Middle-tier application end users issue requests to a middle-tier application that submits the requests to a database system on behalf of the middle-tier end users. The middle-tier application may authenticate end users and maintain a session pool for maintaining sessions with the database system for virtual users comprising valid middle-tier application end users. The middle-tier application is able to assert the identity of virtual users corresponding to the end users for use in access rights checking and auditing of queries without establishing a new logon session for the user. To facilitate middle-tier application assertion of virtual user identities, the middle-tier application is registered as a valid database user with the database system.
A method of providing virtual access to a database system deployed in a computer system by a middle-tier application, comprising:
A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for execution by a processing system, the computer-executable instructions for providing virtual access to a database system deployed in a computer system by a middle-tier application, the computer-executable instructions, when executed, cause the processing system to:
A system having a database system deployed therein that provides virtual access to the database system by a middle-tier application, comprising:
