| Application users by definition and job function require only the permissions to manipulate data within database objects and execute procedures within the database. The statements used to define objects in the database are referred to as Data Definition Language (DDL) statements and include the CREATE, DROP, and ALTER object statements (DDL statements do not include CREATE USER, DROP USER, or ALTER USER actions). This requirement is included here as a production system would by definition not support changes to the data definitions. Where object creation is an indirect result of DBMS operation or dynamic object structures are required by the application function as is found in some object-oriented DBMS applications, this restriction does not apply. Re-use of static data structures to recreate temporary data objects are not exempted. |
