PGConf APAC 2018 - Lightening Talk #2 - Centralizing Authorization in PostgreSQL
0 likes325 views
The document discusses implementing centralized authorization in PostgreSQL by synchronizing user roles and privileges with an LDAP server. It provides a step-by-step approach to setting up LDAP authentication in PostgreSQL and using scripts to synchronize user roles and privileges between the database and LDAP based on group membership. The synchronization scripts create roles for each LDAP user, grant privileges to roles based on mapping rules, and handle role inheritance.
