Sybase IQ recognizes three categories of users for each IQ database:
The database administrator, or DBA, has complete authority to perform all operations on that database. This guide is addressed primarily to the DBA, who typically carries out most administrative tasks.
The user who creates a particular database object is its owner, and can perform any operation on that object.
All other users are considered public users. The owner of an object is considered a public user for objects owned by other users.
