## What it is
DBeaver is a free, open-source, multi-platform universal database tool and SQL client built in Java. It supports any database with a JDBC or ODBC driver, offering SQL editing, data editing, ER diagrams, data import/export, administration tools, and AI integration.

## Use cases
- manage mysql and postgresql databases from a gui
- write and run sql queries against multiple databases
- generate er diagrams of database schemas
- migrate data between different databases
- browse and edit sqlite database files
- connect to snowflake or redshift data warehouses
- view spatial/gis data stored in a database
- tunnel database connections over ssh

## When to choose
- you need one client for many different database engines
- you want a free cross-platform alternative to vendor-specific tools
- you need visual schema browsing, ER diagrams, and data editing
- you work with JDBC-compatible or NoSQL databases regularly

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight command-line-only query tool
- you require advanced NoSQL or cloud database features available only in the paid PRO edition
- you want a web-based database client for teams (consider CloudBeaver instead)
