Processes—the service workloads that run on your infrastructure—are the building blocks of your application, and it’s critical to know how well they operate at every level of the stack.

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is a sophisticated method designed to streamline the management of user permissions within software environments, including SharePoint Online.
