When you connect to the database, you are either using a dedicated server or a shared server. Shared servers share the connection with other users. Dedicated server means it is all yours.

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28310/manproc001.htm#ADMIN11168

You should be able to look at the connect descriptor and tell whether you are using a shared or dedicated. If it doesnt say, you might try adding a dedicated option to the descriptor.
