Schemas
Schemas are a purely logical structure and the privilege system determines whether one can access them. A database is a collection of schemas and the schemas contain tables, views, etc. The full hierarchy is: server, database, schema, table (or some other kind of object).
In OracleA schema is a collection of database objects. A schema is owned by a database user and has the same name as that user. Schema objects are the logical structures that directly refer to the database's data. Schemas are being implemented in PostgreSQL Server version 7.3 and higher. Schemas are being implemented in Microsoft Server 2005.
