"PostgreSQL provides a set of predefined roles that provide access to
certain, commonly needed, privileged capabilities and information.
Administrators (including roles that have the CREATEROLE privilege) can
GRANT these roles to users and/or other roles in their environment,
providing those users with access to the specified capabilities and
information."
