Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres supports robust database operations by enabling fine-grained access control within the database based on user roles through Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). It also integrates with external directory services, allowing for centralized user management across the organization and automatic assignment of database privileges.
Access control using RBAC
RBAC is a method of managing privileges through roles, rather than directly granting privileges to users. Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres provides the following features based on this RBAC concept to achieve stronger access control.
Centralized user management with directory services
Directory services centralize user information on a network and provide a foundation for authentication and authorization. Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres enhances its integration with directory services by supporting the following:
Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres supports ldap2pg, allowing you to synchronize Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres roles with an LDAP directory (a directory service protocol). This enables the integration of user information centrally managed in the directory service with Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres roles.
See
Refer to "ldap2pg" in the Installation and Setup Guide for Client for details.
Fujitsu Enterprise Postgres supports user authentication via LDAP. In addition to managing users within the database itself, you can authenticate logins to the database using user information stored in the organization's directory service.
See
Refer to "LDAP Authentication File Settings" in the Installation and Setup Guide for Server for details.
