I recently thought about this, too. Is there any cloud-based, simple relational database, aimed at non-programmers?

- jugg1es 6y agoMicrosoft Access is a database aimed at non-programmers. I'm not really sure why you would care if it's cloud-based or not if you aren't a programmer though. You could have Access save your database file to One Drive or something. Access also integrates with SQL Server and you can probably get a free tier one on Azure.
- chaostheory 6y agoMicrosoft is aiming to replace it with their easy to use Power App platform. Plenty of people and companies are working on this problem
- kylewatson 6y agoQuickBase and Knack are along those lines. A long time ago I used QuickBase. It was like a Google sheets before google sheets and you could couple multiple sheets together, relating them. It has probably come a long way since then, but ironically, I can't get past the marketing ui of the website to see how it really works. Fucking marketing people love to hide the product behind bullshit.
- joubert 6y agoInteresting. What do you envision non-programmers would do with it?
