Does it make sense to connect to Oracle through proxy in case when user can connect to Oracle direct

edited Jun 11, 2016 4:01AM in Database Security Products (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered

My current understanding is that proxy DB connections only make sense for globally or externally authenticated users. Is it correct? Can somebody give me a viable scenario when a proxy connection for a user that can connect to Oracle directly would still be beneficial? Maybe something related to using connection pools/cached connections?

Howdy, Stranger!
