Discover what database professionals have known for years -- that enterprise databases are designed with enterprise modelling tools. Why has this been a secret for so many? Why do so many labor with buckets full of error-prone undocumented SQL? Well, it seems no one has been able to pack the features of a quality data modelling tool into a product at a reasonable price -- not until now.
Data Architect is a software for designing databases at all levels of an organization, using the same concepts found in tools costing thousands of dollars!
Supported databases:
- generic using ODBC (included)
- generic using SQL92 (included)
- MySQL (included)
- PostgreSQL (included)
- InterBase/FireBird (included)
- DB2 (optional - additional cost)
- MSSQL (optional - additional cost)
- Gupta SQLBase (optional - additional cost)
- Oracle (optional - additional cost)
