Just-in-Time Access To Aerospike

Utilize the seamless integration between Aerospike and Apono to streamline the automated administration of Aerospike database access. Easily configure dynamic access workflows, grant detailed permissions, and generate a comprehensive audit trail that outlines the who, why, and when of access to Aerospike.

Just-inTime
(JIT)

Aerospike is a high-performance, distributed NoSQL database designed for handling large volumes of real-time data with low-latency requirements. It is often used in applications that demand rapid and predictable access to data, such as in web-scale and mission-critical systems.

Just-In-Time (JIT) access involves assigning permissions to users or systems in real-time as needed, rather than maintaining continuous access. This strategy is frequently employed in cybersecurity to reduce the risk of security breaches by restricting unnecessary access. It aligns with the principle of least privilege (POLP), emphasizing that users should only have the minimum access levels required to fulfill their tasks.
