SQuirreL SQL
Graphical Java program to view any JDBC database structure
About SQuirreL SQL
A graphical Java program that allows users to view the structure of JDBC-compliant databases, browse data in tables, issue SQL commands and work across many database vendors uniformly. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
