Submission Guidelines

Connection manager role

For a given DB connection - there's a need to be able to specify the owner for this specific connection.

Reason for this is that the credentials for a given DB are not all managed by the central admin team - so we'd want to say that a given DB connection is owned by a particular person so that this can be updated frequently as passwords change.

 

For resilience - our particular policy would be to have 2 owners so that if one person resigns or changes roles, it invalidates the primary and reverts to the secondary - and then asks the new Primary to create a backup owner.

Tagging @jrichmond93 and @alyon . Hoping we can get credential and connection owner capability so these can be managed by the actual owners vs. having to share passwords with the centralized server team.
