About CloudBeaver

CloudBeaver is a web application from DBeaver Corporation that brings much of DBeaver's database management into the browser. You run it on your own server, usually as a Docker container, and team members log in to browse databases, run SQL in an editor with autocomplete, edit data in a grid, view ER diagrams and export results, without installing anything on their machines. Administrators can configure connections centrally and control which users see which databases, which is useful for giving analysts or support staff safe access. The Community edition is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 licence and supports popular relational databases. CloudBeaver Enterprise, a paid server licence, adds NoSQL and cloud databases, SSO and identity providers, and finer-grained access control. As a self-hosted web app it needs someone to deploy, secure and update it, and it has fewer features than the DBeaver desktop app.

Best for: Teams that want shared, browser-based database access on their own servers.
