  • Publication number: 20140040314
    Abstract: An approach for providing data access via a common access manager configured to support security for multiple database management system types is described. A request specifying access for a user to a feature associated with one of a plurality of database management system types is determined by a common access manager configured to support the database management system types. A first-level approval of the access request by a first-level approver is determined. The access request is forwarded to a second-level approver based on the first-level approval. A provisioning of the access to the feature for the user is initiated based on a second-level approval by the second-level approver.
