7.10.6 Database Service Names and SID
A SID is a unique name that uniquely identifies the database instance where as a
service name is the
Database TNS Alias that is given when users remotely connect
to the database. The Service name is recorded in the tnsnames.ora file on the
clients and it can be the same as the SID, and it can also be given any other name.
A service name is a feature in which a database can register itself with the
listener. If a database is registered with a listener using a service name then the
service name can be used as a parameter in the tnsnames.ora file. Otherwise a SID
can be used in the tnsnames.ora file.
