Milvus RBAC Explained: Secure Your Vector Database with Role-Based Access Control

What this post added

This post introduces and explains Milvus's Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system, detailing its components (Users, Roles, Privileges, Privilege Groups, Resources), how it works, and how to configure it. It covers enabling authorization, initializing users and roles, granting privileges at instance, database, and collection levels, and inspecting/revoking access. An example demonstrates designing RBAC for a RAG system with distinct roles for administration, read-only search, and read-write ingestion.
