US Patent 11971876 Object resolution among account-level namespaces for database platforms

A database platform receives an object identifier from a client in association with a database session. The client is associated with a customer account of the database platform, and the database session is associated with the client. The customer account includes multiple disjoint account-level namespaces, each of which represents a distinct context for resolution of object identifiers, such that matching object identifiers in different account-level namespaces in the customer account do not collide with respect to object-identifier resolution. The database platform determines that the object identifier does not specify an account-level namespace, and responsively resolves the object identifier with reference to a current account-level namespace of the database session by identifying an object corresponding to the object identifier in the customer account.
