## What it is
A Visual Studio Code extension that acts as an all-in-one database client for MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Redis, ClickHouse, DM, and ElasticSearch, with table views, SQL query editing, and backup/import. It also doubles as an SSH client. Note that the open-source repo contains only early code; the current version is closed source.

## Use cases
- manage mysql databases from vscode
- run sql queries in visual studio code
- browse and edit postgres tables
- connect to redis from my editor
- backup and import database tables
- ssh into servers from vscode
- query elasticsearch from an ide

## When to choose
- you want database management without leaving VS Code
- you need one tool for multiple database types plus SSH
- you prefer a lightweight alternative to standalone DB GUIs

## When to avoid
- you need fully open-source tooling, since the current version is closed source
- you require production-grade backup/dump features, which the project itself calls unstable
- you dislike telemetry, even though it can be disabled

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: database, database-driver, ssh, gui
- domain: databases, developer-tools
- platform: editor-plugin, cross-platform
