Microsoft Azure SQL Server Read Only User Creation Deletion

Hi folks,

Today I will explain, how you can easily manage the readonly (view) users in Azure Microsoft SQL Server

Procedure

In Azure SQL Server

CREATE LOGIN [testuser] WITH PASSWORD = 'random_p@$$w0rd';

For master and each DB

Note: You must create the user in master db before creating in other databases

CREATE USER [testuser] FOR LOGIN [testuser]   
    WITH DEFAULT_SCHEMA = [dbo];  
GO

Grant Connect permission

GRANT CONNECT TO [testuser]
GO

Give datareader role to read (view) only

ALTER ROLE db_datareader ADD MEMBER [testuser]
GO

Drop user in DB

DROP USER [testuser]

GO

Drop user in Azure SQL

DROP LOGIN [testuser];
GO

Docker postgres db to local volume/drive for persistent storage permanently

Hi all,

Today, I would be explaining the way to maintain the DB with data persistent when connecting to docker.

System Status

Postgresql DB container is in Docker
Windows 10 PC
Linux containers

Issue

Whenever I restart docker/PC the database wiped off due to container is stopped.

Solution

Create a docker volume

Syntax: docker volume create <>
Example: docker volume create pgdata

Start the container with volume option

Syntax: docker run --rm --name <> -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=<> -d -p 5432:5432 -v <>:/var/lib/postgresql/data <>
Example: docker run --rm --name pgcontainer -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=MyPassword -d -p 5432:5432 -v pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data postgres

Now, you can run all your database commands

Upon restart also, your data should be safe.

Thanks for reading the blog post.
