Schema

Schema
1. The description of a structure. cf Database schema.
2. In an Oracle database: The collection of database objects that are owned by a particular user are referred to as that user's schema. Every object in the database belongs to one and only one schema, and therefore, to one and only one user (although may still be accessed by many users).
