<title>Description</title>
<para>
<command>CREATE USER</command> is now an alias for
<link linkend="sql-createrole"><command>CREATE ROLE</command></link>.
The only difference is that when the command is spelled
<command>CREATE USER</command>, <literal>LOGIN</literal> is assumed
by default, whereas <literal>NOLOGIN</literal> is assumed when
the command is spelled
<command>CREATE ROLE</command>.
</para>
</refsect1>

<title>Compatibility</title>
<para>
The <command>CREATE USER</command> statement is a
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> extension. The SQL standard
leaves the definition of users to the implementation.
