Manage database users

In RisingWave, a database user is similar to a database user or role in Postgres, allowing a person or application to access a specific database or set of databases within a cluster. Also, you connect and log in to a cluster as one of its database users. Database users can be assigned specific permissions to control their database privileges. Currently, all database users have the superuser privilege. Future releases will introduce more granular permissions.

Create a user

You can create a database user in several ways.

Change user password

You can change the password of any database users in your cluster.

Delete a user

If you no longer need a database user, you can delete it.
