What kind of auth & logging does TimescaleDB offer? Is every request authenticated & authorized?
1 comments

TimescaleDB inherits from Postgres a rich role-based access control, so all requests require permissions and roles can be enforced at various levels (database, schema, table, or even rows) and privileges (SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, CREATE, etc).

Authentication to the database is typically governed to different security mechanisms, including certificate-based auth, password via SSL, etc.
