                    So, is there any possible to work with AD
                      groups such as (IT-DBA, IT-APPS..etc ) in
                      postgresql.
                  
                
      Like this?

      https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/LDAP_Authentication_against_AD
    

    that handles authentication, but AFAIK, postgresql has no concept
      of Active Directory groups, only group roles defined within the
      postgres server.     even if you're using AD for authentication,
      you still have to create roles in postgresql, and put these roles
      in groups.
