Check Your Privileges: The PostgreSQL Role System

Level: Beginner

PostgreSQL has a very sophisticated role privilege system that can control access to database objects on a very granular level… if you use it properly!

This talk is an introduction to the user and role system in PostgreSQL, how to configure it, how to set up secure defaults, and how to use it for both database login and granular control over access once a user is logged in.
