Features: dbAnalyst
dbAnalyst is an integrated development and management environment with a single consistent interface to all major relational databases.
dbAnalyst is a collection of database management tools and includes:
| |
1 |
 |
The Database Connection Profiles: Create database connections to your databases by using database-specific, version-specific connection wizards. |
2 |
 |
The SQL Query Console tool: The workbench for database administrators and database developers. Create and execute SQL statements using advanced editing functions, advanced display functions, etc.
|
3 |
 |
The Schema Explorer tool: Get the big picture. Understand database object relationships, etc.
|
4 |
 |
The Query Builder tool: Intuitively build database queries using drag-and-drop actions.
|
5 |
 |
The Database Spy tool: capture database access and SQL statement events as they occur.
|
dbAnalyst offers the tools that are most required to develop, analyze and maintain databases. dbAnalyst was designed to rely on database and database-version configuration scripts that enable dbAnalyst to closely match database feature sets; dbAnalyst is enabled to new databases or database versions in a matter of days.
Create and use Database Connection Profiles.
 |
Creating a database connection profile is made possible by stepping through database-specific wizards: Select your target database type, enter required parameters and test your connection. Optionally, additional parameters may be required to enable additional software functions, such as the Database Spy tool. Once created, a connection profile will enable one-click connection to your database.

SQL Query Console tool.
 |
The essential tool for database professionals: create and execute SQL statements using syntax highlighting (i.e. display SQL code in different colors and fonts according to the category of terms) and code auto-complete (i.e. predict or suggest a word or phrase that the user wants to type in without the user actually typing it in completely), execute data definition language (DDL) statements or data manipulation language (DDL) SQL statements, and view result sets in text or grid format.

Schema Explorer tool.
 |
The Schema Explorer tool is the gateway to a quick and convenient global understanding of your database schema: visualize database objects in context, understand relationships and dependencies. The schema explorer displays database objects with ease of use, and a common look & feel for all databases. Database platform- and version-specific display, intuitive object editors and wizards allow you to manage your database objects, including tables, constraints, indexes, views, etc. Major features include:
- List database schemas. Explore schemas, list and view objects including structure (script), visualize and understand relationships , view dependencies.
- Create and manage objects using intuitive wizards
- Generate object scripts (create, drop, delete, etc)
- Compare schema to schema, within or across database vendors.
- Translate schemas from database vendor to another database vendor.
- Export and import content and structures either in database-agnostic binary format, in text or in XML format

Database Spy tool.
 |
The Database Spy tool captures application performance data with minimum database environment impact, and provides high level issue highlighting as occurring - in minutes instead of days. The Database Spy tool captures user database access and SQL statement events as occurring. Event capture occurs on demand during any user session, or automatically when user sessions are established. Each captured event consists of a SQL statement, parameters, statement execution plan and potential execution issues. The Database Spy tool exhibits the root cause to statement execution poor performance as well as the means and metrics to address such issues - such as missing indexes, Disk IO issues, awkward SQL statements, etc.
