Setting privileges

Informix®

Informix users must have at least the CONNECT privilege to access the database:

GRANT CONNECT TO username

Application administration users need the RESOURCE privilege to create tables:

GRANT RESOURCE TO username

Since version 7.20, Informix supports database roles:

GRANT rolename TO username

SAP® ASE supports the concept of roles to grant or revoke permissions to a group of users.

See SAP ASE documentation for more details.

Informix and SAP ASE user privileges management are quite similar.
