31 CREATE USER is now an alias for CREATE ROLE (CREATE_ROLE(7)). The only
32 difference is that when the command is spelled CREATE USER, LOGIN is
33 assumed by default, whereas NOLOGIN is assumed when the command is
34 spelled CREATE ROLE.
35
37 The CREATE USER statement is a PostgreSQL extension. The SQL standard
38 leaves the definition of users to the implementation.
