Role-based access control (RBAC)
In RisingWave Cloud, Role-based access control (RBAC) system empowers organizations to precisely manage access permissions based on their roles. Among RisingWave Cloud users in the organization, each user is associated with a pre-defined role. The organization administrator will have permission to edit the roles of all the members, whereas other members will have access to different subsystems depending on their roles.
Security principal
A security principal refers to an entity that is authenticated and authorized to perform various operations and access resources in RisingWave Cloud. You can assign a role to any of these security principals:- Service account: Typically represents an application. It accesses RisingWave Cloud resources on the application’s behalf, using API keys for authentication.
- User: Typically represents an individual user who interacts with resources via the user interface.
