Overview: Tables

This section of the configuration deals with the name of each table within the database. By specifying this in the configuration file, it is possible for us to do a number of things to improve flexibility and security. For instance, it becomes possible for certain tables to be owned by a user other than the account the WACS database layer logs in as. This is useful in controlling what may be done to records in the database and by whom.
