Hi,

I designed a Java web application. The persistence layer is a PostgreSQL database. The application needs user authentication. I think it's a good choice to implement this authentication mechanism via PostgreSQL login roles. So I can create several database login roles and set the database permissions to this login roles. This is my first project with the postgres database, so I don't know how I can validate a login from the website. Is there a best practice to do this or does PostgreSQL offers a stored procedure like 'authenticateUser(String username, String password)'?

Thanks for your help.

Bye,
Thorsten


Can you not use the username/password as part of the DSN?
