What's the advantage over giving dbeaver to users and set up their users right at the db level ? Cleaner UI (that's a big +1) ? Access and right management ?
- inssein 6y agoEvery action against a data source is logged and query-able. At my current startup, giving acess to everyone at the company to use a traditional tool (dbeaver, datagrip, etc) is not simple because our databases are not publically accessible. This means every employee would need an ssh key to a bastion, and our onboarding / offboarding process would involve adding / delete users constantly. With Aidmin, they can invite users to their workspace and utilize Signle Sign-On for added security.
- ineedasername 6y agoMaybe emphasize that last bit more. That starts to distinguish it from the various free options out there that do something similar. As for databases not being publicly accessible, why not just use a VPN?
- jamra 6y agoProtection from ransomware is another. If they lock down the server that runs this app well enough, it's significantly more secure than production access to every developer.
- karmakaze 6y agoI think that these differences could be enough. I've used dbeaver which gets the job done but could benefit from better UI and a web interface. Another of a web app is if a few people can configure everything for the rest of the team(s). If there's a lot of databases and onboarding it can be a chore.
