Database Tour Pro

Database management systems these days need to account for a wide range of database types, and the different object types and their inherent complexity and relationships often dictate the way in which each database type is handled. Things can become even more difficult when wanting to achieve interoperability in such contexts.

Database Tour Pro, just like its sibling, Database Tour, aims at offering a more generalist take on the entire database management system endeavor, allowing you to address and manage a wide range of database environments, it additionally implements command-line functionality, as well as reporting.

Just as with Database Tour, this application also provides a clean design, which I found to offer a lot of accessibility and offer users the choice of either relying on the included, on-screen controls, for quick access, or on the dedicated menus.

Once you’ve imported a preferred database type, previewing its internal contents and navigating through it is simple, and the tabular view provided puts much emphasis on the internal objects and their relationships.

One additional feature that set Database Tour Pro away from its regular iteration, is the fact that it comes equipped with command-line integration. This will basically allow you to perform your DBMS tasks in a more structured manner, especially if you have a coding background.

Last but not least, the reporting feature provided completes the package and in my opinion offers a good way of gaining more insight into the database statistics and other relevant aspects.

With one of its many strengths being the supported database variety, this DBMS manages to provide a reliable tool for visualizing and administering such environments, with a collection of tools that encompasses a broad spectrum of applicability.
