Manage and monitor AlloyDB Omni

Select a documentation version: This page describes how to manage AlloyDB Omni user roles, monitor the activity of your AlloyDB Omni server, and update or remove your AlloyDB Omni installation.

Manage user roles

AlloyDB Omni uses the following roles:

  • AlloyDB Omni includes a superuser role named alloydbadmin , and a non-superuser role named alloydbmetadata .

  • The default postgres user has a superuser role.

  • All other predefined user roles have no privileges. They are reserved for potential uses in the future.

Set up an AlloyDB Omni database

We recommend following these steps when setting up an AlloyDB Omni database:

  1. Define or import your databases using the postgres user role. In a new installation, this role has superuser privileges.

  2. Create new user roles that have the correct level of access to your application's tables, again using the postgres user role.

  3. Configure your application to connect to the database using these new, limited-access roles.

You can create and define as many new user roles as you need. Don't modify or delete any of the user roles that comes with AlloyDB Omni.

For more information, see Manage AlloyDB Omni users and roles .
