Enterprise users are users who are defined in an LDAP-compliant directory and configured for database access. If they must be treated as local database users by your database, then they must have an exclusive schema. In this case, the user and schema mapping are in the database.
As an alternative, you can map multiple enterprise users to one schema in
the database. This schema must be created by using the GLOBALLY
clause in the CREATE USER SQL statement as follows:
CREATE USER username IDENTIFIED GLOBALLY AS '';
In this case, the user-to-schema mapping is stored in the directory.
See Oracle Database Security Guide for more conceptual information about enterprise users.
