What is the main responsibility of an OAuth2 Authorization Server in a Spring Boot application?
- Authenticating users and granting access tokens.
- Controlling database access.
- Managing user profiles and preferences.

The primary responsibility of an OAuth2 Authorization Server in a Spring Boot application is to authenticate users and grant access tokens to authorized clients. It does not store user passwords but rather validates user credentials and authorizes access to protected resources. It also does not manage user profiles and preferences, nor does it control database access; these are typically the tasks of the application's authentication system and database itself.
