In the simplest terms, an event is any task that can be run according to a schedule. Many popular DBMSes include support for events. These are also known as "scheduled events" or as "temporal triggers" because events are triggered by time, as opposed to triggers, which are invoked by database operations such as table updates. Database events may be utilized for a variety of tasks such as optimizing database tables, cleaning up logs, archiving data, or to generate reports during off-peak times.

In today's blog, we'll learn how to view and activate database events. In subsequent blogs, we'll learn how to configure events for various tasks.

Setting privileges for each user as we did in the last blog is not the only way to do so; the Privilege Manager offers another way to set privileges for a connection as well as its database objects. Available for MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQL Server and MariaDB, the Privilege Manager will be the subject of today's blog.

Part 1: Securing the Root Account

Managing the users of a database is one of the key responsibilities of the database administrator (DBA). Coordinating how users in your organization access your database typically entails many separate tasks, from adding new users, blocking access to users who have left the organization, and helping users who cannot log in.
