DbGate is a database management application available as a desktop program or a self-hosted web interface. It provides tools for connecting to multiple database systems, exploring their structures and working with data through a graphical interface.
The Community edition supports popular relational and non-relational databases, including MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, MongoDB and Redis. Users can work with multiple connections, browse database objects, execute SQL queries and edit table records.
DbGate offers an SQL editor, a tabular data browser and facilities for managing database connections. Its interface makes it possible to inspect tables, views and other database objects without switching between separate applications. The desktop version is available for Linux, macOS and Windows, while the web edition can be deployed through Docker or npm.
The project also offers commercial editions with additional functionality, including advanced query design, schema comparison, visualisation and data deployment tools. These premium capabilities should be distinguished from those included in the Community edition.
This is free and open source software.
