Another option is proxy authentication. Difference in that case is user has
complete access to target schema, just uses own name and password to
authenticate.

Subject: Access schema using a different user
To: oracle-l digest users <oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I want to give a another database user to access to my schema
I know I can create a role that will grant rights/privileges to the new user to
allow them to access the schema objects.
However the application will reference the database tables etc using the user
that is used to connect and obviously the tables will not exist for that user.
Is the only way to resolve this using synonyms or is there something simpler?
Oracle version is 11.2
Any help appreciated.
