that's what I thinking actually, using oauth to connect to a DB is definitely a new concept though, and most larger enterprises either use data warehouses or self hosted DBs (just a guess), so oauth may not be an option If the SaaS target customers are smaller companies / startups, then this may be viable I'd love to hear more about your idea though! would you mind sharing a little bit about it?

Let me know if you end up researching this further and what the conclusion is. I think the best way to tackle this would be via an API the customers can give you. The idea is a simple marketing tool to help businesses reach out to customers that didn’t convert fully through the funnel. So for example, user created a profile, but didn’t end up purchasing. If interested, I can share the link (once it’s up) and would love to get your feedback.

> If the SaaS target customers are smaller companies / startups, then this may be viable I’m your target audience. The #1 issue I have with this concept is, as a customer, I would have to trust that you understand the performance limits of my production database and that you won’t run (even accidentally) a burst of inefficient queries that takes down or impairs production. One way around this would be to query against a replica / secondary, but even then you risk overloading a secondary/replica, which could have negative effects in a failover scenario.
