Entitlements - BETA

Entitlements enables you to control the actions that users are entitled to perform.

Beta - For evaluation and trial use only

Entitlements is currently in beta.

  • Refer here to the standard terms related to beta features
  • We invite you to use this beta feature and to provide feedback using the Ideas portal
  • During deployment, the entitlements feature is disabled by default, meaning no restrictions are applied and you can manage all databases, pipelines and views as well as query all data in a kdb Insights Enterprise deployment
  • When you enable the feature, you do not have access to query data in a database unless you have been given a data entitlement to query the database in question

Types of entitlements

There are two types of entitlements you can use to control user permissions in kdb Insights Enterprise:

  • Data entitlements - control who is entitled to query data within a deployed database.
  • Package entitlements - control the permissions each user has to interact with packages which contain databases, pipelines and views. Each package has its own entitlements.
