I prefer an architecture that enables me to clearly identify the 'entry
points' of the (UI) application into the dbms. Ideally I would like three
schemas:

1 - Application owner schema with all the tables and stored pl/sql that is
not directly accessed by the application.
2 - API schema. This schema has all the objects that are accessed by the UI
application.
3 - UI application connect schema.

Schema 2 would have private synonyms to objects referred in schema 1. And
also the necessary object privileges granted from schema 1 to schema 2.

Schema 3 has private synonyms to objects in schema 2 + the necessary object
privileges granted from schema 2.
