SiriDB Scopes

[riklempens]

In SiriDB 2.x we used both database users and service accounts. A service account was used to manage a SiriDB server and each database required its own database users.

In the new version we introduce the concept of scopes. When starting SiriDB, the scope /sdb can be used to create users, databases and add nodes to the cluster.

The node itself will also have a scope to read information of that node (/node/<id>). Each database will be accessible using the scope for the database. For example (/db/example). Users can be given access to scopes so a single user can have access to multiple databases and/or access to manage SiriDB nodes and other users.
