Just-in-Time Access To SingleStore
Utilize the seamless integration between SingleStore and Apono to streamline the automated administration of SingleStore 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 SingleStore.
SingleStore, formerly known as MemSQL, is a distributed, in-memory, SQL-based relational database management system (RDBMS) designed for real-time analytics and operational workloads. It is built to handle high-performance transactional and analytical workloads concurrently, providing organizations with the ability to process and analyze large volumes of data in real-time.
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.
Use cases
Developer JIT Access
- Limit access to the minimum required permissions and implementing strict controls on when those permissions are granted, JIT access helps enhance overall security. This proactive approach reduces the risk of unauthorized access and potential security breaches.
- Integrate JIT access with your incident response plan. In the event of a security incident, having the ability to quickly adjust access permissions can be crucial for containing and mitigating the impact.
- Utilize JIT access with your identity management systems. This integration streamlines the process of aligning access permissions with changes in user roles, making it more efficient and less prone to errors.

Continuous Access Monitoring & Conversion to Auto-Revoked Policies
Employ advanced monitoring mechanisms to vigilantly track and manage instances of unused access and over-privileges within your organizational framework. Leverage cutting-edge “Just-in-Time” access controls, which grant permissions precisely when required, and complement this with “Just Enough” conversion suggestions that provide nuanced recommendations for optimizing access levels.
Ephemeral On-Demand Access
Ensure that access privileges are meticulously aligned with the specific requirements of each task by implementing a sophisticated system of granular ephemeral access. This strategic approach involves providing nuanced and temporary access permissions, precisely tailored to the unique demands of individual tasks. By adopting this level of granularity, you not only enhance the precision of access control but also optimize security measures within your operational landscape.
Single Source of Truth
Centralize and streamline the management of privileges across your entire technology stack by consolidating them within a unified platform. This approach not only enhances efficiency but also facilitates a more comprehensive and cohesive oversight of the various permissions and access levels throughout your system, contributing to a more robust and integrated security framework.
Self-Service Access Requests
Amplify employee productivity through the implementation of an efficient system that empowers individuals to seamlessly discover, request, and obtain access to essential resources in a matter of minutes. This transformative approach not only expedites operational efficiency but also cultivates an environment characterized by heightened agility and responsiveness.
Comprehensive Audit Log
Enhance SingleStore access and permissions transparency, facilitating comprehensive auditing for incident investigation and the implementation of scheduled reporting mechanisms to meet compliance requirements effectively.
Request & Approve via ChatOps
Leverage the power of ChatOps workflows, seamlessly integrating platforms such as Slack and Teams, to both grant and request access in a collaborative and streamlined manner. This innovative approach enhances the accessibility and efficiency of access management within your organizational framework. By incorporating ChatOps, you create an environment where access permissions can be granted or requested through intuitive and user-friendly interfaces, such as chat interfaces in Slack or Teams.
