Abstract
A system receives a request from an application to access a database. The system forms a database table proxy for a logical database. One or more database silos are assigned to the database table proxy. A default database silo from the one or more database silos is defined for the database table proxy. A database silo of the database table proxy corresponding to an application requesting access to the logical database is accessed with a database engine.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- forming a database table proxy for a logical database;
- assigning one or more database silos to the database table proxy;
- defining a default database silo from the one or more database silos for the database table proxy;
- and
- accessing, using at least one processor, a database silo of the database table proxy corresponding to an application requesting access to the logical database at a database engine.
A system comprising:
- a storage device configured to store a logical database;
- and
- a processing device comprising a database engine configured to form a database table proxy as the logical database, assign one or more database silos to the database table proxy, define a default database silo from the one or more database silos for the database table proxy, and access a database silo of the database table proxy corresponding to an application requesting access to the logical database.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, performs operations comprising:
- forming a database table proxy as a logical database;
- assigning one or more database silos to the database table proxy;
- defining a default database silo from the one or more database silos for the database table proxy;
- and
- accessing a database silo of the database table proxy corresponding to an application requesting access to the logical database at a database engine.
