A database link that links each database in a network to all other databases. This enables any user of any database in the network to specify a global object name in a SQL statement or object definition. An Oracle Names server can store global database links.
For example, a connection to a remote database with the global database link of sales.us.acme.com would be:
CONNECT @sales.us.acme.com
![]() | Note: A global database link that matches the database global database name is automatically registered with the Oracle Names server.
