To ensure data integrity, Teradata recommends that only administrators and high-level users have the privilege to access data tables. All other database activity should be done in views.
Teradata recommends that you create top-level databases to separate tables and views. You can create additional lower-level databases within the top level databases as required by site security policy and user access needs.
| Database | Description |
|---|---|
| Tables_Database(s) |
|
| Views_Database(s) |
Where security policy requires it, you can designate a layer of views for load and update operations so that even batch users do not need to directly access data tables.
