Database Workbench Overview

Database development is a hard task. It becomes harder when you have to develop for multiple database engines: different tools, migrating structures, knowing the differences, testing your application with data. You need all the help you can get.

Summary

Developing database applications in todays fast changing world demands a lot from your developers. More often than not, multiple database systems need to be supported and developers have to know multiple tools. Datatypes have different names and metadata statements differ in syntax.

Database Workbench offers the same consistent user interface including the same tools for all supported database systems as well as supporting migration tools to map one database structure to another system without the need to know specific syntax. This saves time and money and increased productivity amongst developers.

Key Benefits

Benefits that make Database Workbench the right tool for database design and development include:

A single consistent and productive user-interface

Don't switch between different vendor tools to develop for multiple database systems, use one consistent graphical interface for all the different systems you support. Having a single development environment saves time and money.

Conceptual and Physical Data Model design tools

Design and develop from a single conceptual data model to the different physical models, reverse engineer existing databases to print graphical overviews.

Increase productivity
  • Use graphical editors to create, modify and browse schema objects
  • Use Object Templates and Code Templates for consistency and faster development
  • SQL Insight to finish SQL statements
  • Drag-and-drop and context sensitive menus avoids having to manually enter long SQL statements
  • SQL and Code Catalogs to quickly save snippets
  • Quickly copy SQL statements between popular programming languages and automatically escape quotes etc
  • Add objects to your "workspace" and group them together
Develop, test, debug

After developing, use the built-in Test Data Generator to generate sample data or use the Import Tools to import data into your database. The Stored Procedure and Trigger Debugger allows you to test your stored code.

Cross database development

Use the Schema Compare and Migration Tools to compare testing and deployed databases, migrate existing databases to different database systems.

Document your databases
  • Create diagrams and export or print them
  • Print schema reports with tables, procedures and more
Supported Database Engines and Licensing

Database Workbench is developed to support different database engines on a per module basis and is licensed per module, you need the "base" module and you can add additional modules to support different database engines.

Available modules for database engines are:

License price depends on the modules you would like to include with your license. There's pricing information on our purchase page.

Available Editions

Database Workbench is available in two editions:

  • Database Workbench Lite: the FREE edition of Database Workbench that supports a single database system (currently InterBase, Firebird or MySQL) and a basic set of features.
  • Database Workbench Pro: the complete edition of Database Workbench that has all features and can support multiple database systems.

For a detailed look at the differences between these editions, see the feature matrix.

This tool is amazing, compared to whatever tool that comes with any SQL Engine, this one is, by far, the simplest and most feature rich one I've seen.

I just created some dummy data with your Test Data Generator - EXTREMELY WELL DONE. That's what I always wanted!
Martin Lehmann
Thank you for a brilliant product. Functionality wise it works well and I have no complaints about reliability. Clearly the best InterBase tool available!
Nico Mills
I recently downloaded and installed this revolutionary software. Within minutes of using the program I saved myself hours of hand written SQL commands and such. With this tool, anyone can build a mission critical InterBase DB within minutes.

The GUI is one of the most intuitive yet powerful interfaces I have come across so far.
