Bancolombia Open Source Program Office - Proposal of contribution on lock inactive users

From

Dear PostgreSQL Community, 

 

Hope you all are doing very well. 

My name is Francisco Arbelaez and I would like to introduce myself in behalf of Bancolombia, from Open Source Office.  

From the Bancolombia organization, we have the responsibility to migrate private licensed technology to Open Source. More specifically, database migration from Oracle to PostgreSQL.  

On one of these migrations, we had the necessity to implement an automatic user lockout strategy for users who do not log into the database in a given number of days, similar to a functionality that already exists in the Oracle environment.  

Based on the official contribution documentation, we have reviewed the TODOs and the PostgreSQL archives and have not found any related contribution. From the Open Source Office of Bancolombia, we have a possible contribution which could help to solve this need and to increase the value of PostgreSQL as an Open Source database engine.  

 

If it matches your needs and objectives, I would like to receive more information related to the next steps of this contribution. 

 

Hope to hear from you soon. 

 

Best regards, 

Francisco Arbelaez 

Open Source Office of Bancolombia

If you want to contribute a patch for consideration, you would start by 
sending it here (to this list) with discussion about why it is needed, 
what problem it solves, how it is designed, how it performs, etc. Also 
register it for the next commitfest. See "What is a CommitFest?" here:

https://www.postgresql.org/developer/

But first, I suggest you read through some or all of the following as well:

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Development_information

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Developer_FAQ#Getting_Involved

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/So,_you_want_to_be_a_developer%3F

https://momjian.us/main/writings/pgsql/company_contributions.html

Beyond that, you and/or some of the folks on your team should follow the 
discussions on this list to become familiar with the people and the ways 
of the community.

Hope this helps,
