+Schema Isolation
+================
+
+A PostgREST instance exposes all the tables, views, and stored procedures of a single `PostgreSQL schema <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ddl-schemas.html>`_ (a namespace of database objects). This means private data or implementation details can go inside different private schemas and be invisible to HTTP clients.

+It is recommended that you don't expose tables on your API schema. Instead expose views and stored procedures which insulate the internal details from the outside world.
