Permissions Hierarchy (Database Engine)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW)

The Database Engine manages a hierarchical collection of entities that can be secured with permissions. These entities are known as securables. The most prominent securables are servers and databases, but discrete permissions can be set at a much finer level. SQL Server regulates the actions of principals on securables by verifying that they have been granted appropriate permissions.

The following illustration shows the relationships among the Database Engine permissions hierarchies.

The permissions system works the same in all versions of SQL Server, SQL Database, Azure Synapse Analytics, Analytics Platform System, however some features are not available in all versions. For example, server-level permission cannot be configured in Azure products.

Working with Permissions

Permissions can be manipulated with the familiar Transact-SQL queries GRANT, DENY, and REVOKE. Information about permissions is visible in the sys.server_permissions and sys.database_permissions catalog views. There is also support for querying permissions information by using built-in functions.

For information about designing a permissions system, see Getting Started with Database Engine Permissions.
