Abstract: Managing user access to application-specific capabilities of a system includes maintaining data correlating application-specific capabilities for each of the applications of the system, where the application-specific capabilities of different applications are independent of each other. Managing user access also includes maintaining data correlating user identifiers with user roles, maintaining data correlating user roles with application-specific capabilities, and managing the data using a security module that accesses the data correlating application-specific capabilities, data correlating user identifiers, and the data correlating user roles. The system may have a plurality of tenants and wherein each of the tenants subscribes to one or more of the applications. Each of the users may correspond to a particular one of the tenants. Each tenant may subscribe to a particular set of applications/features.
