I want to use a single Managed PostgreSQL cluster from DO to host multiple applications (since they’re all small, there’s no need to have a unique cluster per app).
From what I’ve gathered, permissions and user privileges on Postgres are quite complicated.
For instance, supposed I have a user named production_user
and a database called mydatabase_prod
. I want only this user to have permission to access and modify this database.
Is this the minimum that should be done or am I missing something obvious?
ALTER DATABASE mydabase_prod OWNER TO production_user;
REVOKE ALL ON DATABASE mydabase_prod FROM PUBLIC;
GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE mydabase_prod TO production_user;
GRANT ALL ON DATABASE mydabase_prod TO production_user;
Thanks in advance!
