Some tools solve one specific task. Others eventually become the whole toolbox. DBeaver belongs to the second category: it is a cross-platform database client for connecting to, querying, exploring, editing, and exporting data without changing applications. For a data engineer, it feels a lot like a graphical Swiss Army knife.

What is DBeaver?

DBeaver is a desktop application for working with databases and other data sources. It supports JDBC connections, schema and table browsing, SQL with autocomplete, execution-plan inspection, record editing, and data export.
