Schema owner privileges

The schema owner is typically the user who creates the schema. By default, the schema owner has privileges to create objects within a schema. The owner can also alter the schema: reassign ownership, rename it, and enable or disable inheritance of schema privileges.

Schema ownership does not necessarily grant the owner access to objects in that schema. Access to objects depends on the privileges that are granted on them.

All other users and roles must be explicitly granted access to a schema by its owner or a superuser.
