How to use EclipseLink JPA with Oracle Proxy Authentication
The Oracle database offers proxy authentication enabling the application to leverage a shared data source connected to the database by a single common/default user and then when used within the application the connection can be 'proxied' to be a different user. This offers the benefit of the database having knowledge of the specific user for the purposes of auditing or secure data access.
In this how-to the focus is on the usage of proxy authentication in conjunction with EclipseLink's JPA.
