 Each schema is named after the Spark database name with an additional `$` prefix. Both the external and managed tables in the Spark-generated database are exposed as external tables in the corresponding special schema.

-The sharing supports the so-called modern data warehouse pattern and gives the workspace SQL engines access to databases and tables created with Spark. It also allows the SQL engines to create their own objects that are not being shared with the other engines.
