Permission Explanation
Percona/MySQL/MariaDB Permissions
When creating a user, you can select databases to grant permissions:
- Select specific databases: User can only access selected databases
- No selection: User has no database permissions
PostgreSQL Permissions
PostgreSQL permission management is more fine-grained. You can set different permissions for databases, schemas, tables, etc. The panel only supports granting database access permissions.
Password Security
- Use strong passwords containing uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters
- Password length recommended 16 characters or more
- Use different database users for different applications
- Change passwords regularly
