DatabaseAndScopeName Diagram
The DatabaseAndScopeName represents two identifiers separated by a dot character ., where the first identifier is the database name and the second identifier is the scope name.
If a single identifier is present, Capella Columnar resolves it as a scope name and assumes that the database is Default.
For more information about how Capella Columnar organizes entities into a database.scope.database_object hierarchy and resolves names, see Entities in Capella Columnar Services.
