Experience InterBase like never before
Database Workbench was originally created for InterBase and it's been fully supported ever since.
- Support InterBase 7 and up
- Fast performing, multithreaded 64bit Windows application, works under Linux via Wine
- Database design, implementation, testing and documentation
- Includes lots of different development tools to increase productivity and save time
Easy to use
Database Workbench is much easier to use than IBConsole: from server registration and database creation, from design to database implementation, this fully featured database tool make working with InterBase a breeze.
The multi-threaded interfaces comes with lots of smart tools that will help you to save time and money during your InterBase development.
InterBase specific
Although Database Workbench supports multiple database systems, it's by no means a "generic" tool: each of these systems have specific features which are supported through the applications modular approach. Specific InterBase features are supported, for example:
- Database Statistics retrieval
- DBA functionality like Sweep, Shutdown and Restart
- Backup and Restore
- InterBase specific database objects like Exceptions and Change Views
- License management
Modern database development
Database Workbench is a modern user interface for database development. Many of the tools included are aimed at saving time and making development easier for you.
For example, creating Select, Update, Insert and Delete (SUID) or Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) procedures can be done with just a few mouse clicks.
Use the Visual Object Editors instead of typing lengthy SQL statements, use SQL Insight or any other of the many tools available to you.
Stored Procedure Debugger
Stored Procedures, Functions and Triggers are a powerful database feature, but debugging can be hard. With the Stored Procedure Debugger in Database Workbench you can check your routine execution line by line, trace into other routines, set breakpoints and more.
More on the Debugger...Complete database development package
From database design, to implementation, testing and profiling to documentation, Database Workbench offers you the complete package for database development.
The modular approach to Database Workbench allows you to start with support for InterBase and add other modules later on and use the same application for multiple database systems without the need to familiarize yourself with additional applications.
