What Did The Denodo Read Privilege Change To In Denodo 7.0?

• 

Well, the question was asked today by a customer, what happened to the “Read” denodo user privilege between version 6 and version 7.  So, I had to a little research and thought to write it down here, in case anyone else happens to ask or wants to know.

The Denodo 6.0 “Read” privilege is now the “Execute” privilege in version 7.

According To The Denodo Documentation:

• In Denodo 7.0, the privilege “Read” has been renamed to “Execute” to clarify its behavior. In VQL statements, the “READ” token can still be used to keep backward compatibility with existing VQL scripts.
