Jan 20, 2023 at 0:24 comment added J. Gwinner @MikeSmith It's MariaDB, not Postgres, but here's the fix for lacking SUPER on RDS for a database restore: dba.stackexchange.com/questions/317922/…
Jan 20, 2023 at 0:23 comment added J. Gwinner @MikeSmith In practice, I've found that "SUPER" isn't a killer, the RDS permissions give you pretty much everything you'd need to do except some esoteric stuff relating to read only database setup, and restoring views (not so esoteric). I found a work around for the restoring view problem.

Jul 16, 2021 at 17:35 comment added Mike Smith Good to know. I do not have administrative permissions to our Amazon account so I was unaware of that restriction. I will modify my suggestion to limit that suggestion to a server on our local network where we have complete control of the database.

Jul 16, 2021 at 15:09 comment added Mike Smith Thank you Laurenz. That is what I suspected. I felt I had to check because my boss was insistent that what he wanted was possible. I will let him know it is, but not where he wanted it. He will need to spin up a new Amazon RDS for the development database so having everyone as a superuser does not endanger my production database.
