Learning Objectives
Learn the fundamentals of role-based access control (RBAC) in Snowflake.
Understand how to create custom roles and assign them to users.
Practice granting and revoking privileges on databases, schemas, and tables.
Simulate domain-specific access scenarios aligned with organizational security policies.
Overview
In this project, you will implement role-based access control (RBAC) in Snowflake to ensure secure and structured data access. You'll define roles for different functional domains—such as Senior Engineer, Junior Engineer , and Finance Team—and assign them to specific users. Each role will be granted the necessary privileges to access only the objects relevant to their domain. This hands-on project simulates real-world enterprise-level access management, helping you understand how to enforce least privilege principles effectively in Snowflake.
Prerequisites
- Basic understanding of Snowflake architecture and user management.
- Familiarity with SQL commands for creating databases, schemas, and tables.
- Experience with creating and managing Snowflake users and roles.
- Understanding of data security principles and access control best practices.
