Harmandeep, I think wanting to hide the data model from the DBA is just plain 
dumb.  We have purchased vendor products that came with data model 
documentation.  It was provided so you (the customer) could interface other 
systems into the model and/or figure out where to query data via your adhoc 
query tools.

Hi Experts,

We are having data model for our product, which we do not want to expose to our 
customers. That is we want even the DBA of customer with sys privileges should 
not understand /access the data model( like table definitions, columns ).

I am aware of options like VPD, which is data level security feature as per my 
understanding.

Please let me know your thoughts

Thanks,
Harmandeep Singh
