Most application designs don’t use individual accounts at the database or OS
for authentication, as users are normally stored in a table or service that is
backed by a cache and customized authentication methods are used.

Sorry, I have confused BT with BP. British Telecom is probably not in the
business of causing environmental disasters in the Gulf. However, the large
number of users can be authenticated on the OS level. I don't think that every
user must have her/his username in the database.
