Re: Revoke Public Database Connect

That is a ridiculous "nanosecond window" - the database you created is empty - nothing to connect to. Just load data AFTER the revoke.

I'm configuring a multi-tenant PostgreSQL server. When I create a new database, anyone can connect to it. For me, that is bad.

I run:

REVOKE CONNECT ON DATABASE d FROM public;

Now I'm only able to connect to the database as postgres.

I tired putting the create and revoke in a transaction, but create database cannot be put in a transaction. How do I create a database so there is not that nanosecond window where someone could connect to the database publiclly?
