This topic describes the privileges that are available in the Tabular access control model.
Privileges are granted to roles, and roles are granted to users, to specify the operations that the users can perform on objects in the system.
Any granted privilege may also be specified as with GRANT, meaning that the target role has the ability to grant the privilege to other roles. This enables access control management of a given object to be easily delegated.
