Govern Access and Chose the Operational Path
Apply Governance Without Duplicating Authorization
Enterprise governance, source-catalog policy, storage authorization, and Oracle AI Database privileges are cumulative controls. Maintain business classifications and stewardship in AI Catalog, preserve technical metadata from the authoritative source, and expose stable consumer contracts through Oracle views where appropriate. A governance label never substitutes for an IAM policy or a database grant.

- For catalog-backed reads of existing Iceberg tables and use Oracle-managed read/write paths through mounted catalog lifecycle, see Chapter 4.
- For persistent and inline external tables, mounted non-Iceberg sources, and Delta Sharing, see Chapter 5.
