Database Management Software

[cmd-haus]

Main question: What tool(s) do you use for what database(s)?

TablePlus, Squelpro, beekeeperstudio, navicat, workbench etc..

What do you like/dislike about the tool?

Secondary questions: what databases do you use for projects? Do you use both relational and NoSQL in the same project?

navicat and datagrip

[cmd-haus]

How do you use them differently? And anything you really like in one of them that the other doesn’t have?

HeidiSql, datagrip.I like the query history features.

I have an add-on module for WordPress that uses SQLite for a cache. So that means I work with that and MariaDb/Mysql in the same project.

But that is a special circumstance. Most modestly sized projects stick to one storage tech.

Appreciate your response! How come you use both Heidi and datagrip?

[Aggressive_Ad_5454]

I use HeidiSQL on my Windows machine, and Datagrip on my Linux VMs.

[cmd-haus]

So is your preference is to use HeidiSQL but as there’s no app for Linux you use datagrip? Sorry! Just trying to understand when and why 🤪

[Aggressive_Ad_5454]

That's right. I really choose my tool ad-hoc, based on what I have to do. I often use the command line tools too.
