Abstract
Method and apparatus for managing user access to database(s), thereby reducing the time-consuming, repetitive tasks a database administrator must perform to grant user access to one or more databases. Embodiments of the invention also facilitate a database administrator in granting multiple user access of different types to multiple databases. Furthermore, embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for tracking grants of user access for multiple databases. One embodiment provides a method for managing user access to one or more databases, comprising: receiving an access request for one or more users requesting access to one or more databases; retrieving server information for the one or more databases; adding the one or more users to a user group for the database; and generating an access document for each user.
