CHAPTER 5Build a Basic Relational Schema
Every database application is built upon a set of related database objects that store the application's data and allow the application to function. This chapter introduces Oracle database objects, such as tables, and discusses the logical concepts of database objects. Discussions of data storage (storage parameters, partitioning, and so on) will come in subsequent chapters of this book. This chapter's topics include the following:
Schemas
Tables

Views
Sequences
