https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/predefined-roles.html

"PostgreSQL provides a set of predefined roles that provide access to 
certain, commonly needed, privileged capabilities and information. 
Administrators (including roles that have the CREATEROLE privilege) can 
GRANT these roles to users and/or other roles in their environment, 
providing those users with access to the specified capabilities and 
information."
