Abstract

The present invention relates to a system, method and computing apparatus to isolate a database in a database system. The disclosure of the present invention enables more efficient and more secured implementation of “database isolation” in a multi-tenant or multi-user database system storing service data belonging to different users. The user identifier(s) are extracted from the default database, creating a user table according to the extracted user identifier(s), creating a service table in the main database with owner user identifier column and owner group identifier column inserted, it can efficiently create view to a user when the user requests to access the service data which the user owns or the user is authorized to access.
