CloudBeaver

CloudBeaver is a web-based database manager from the DBeaver project designed for teams to access, browse, and query databases from a browser. It provides a centralized way to manage database connections and permissions while using a familiar DBeaver-style SQL editor and object navigator.

Key Features

• Browser-based SQL editor with results grid, filtering, and basic data editing
• Database object navigator to browse schemas, tables, views, columns, indexes, etc.
• Centralized connection management (create/manage shared connections)
• Role-based access control for users/teams and per-connection permissions
• Authentication options for team deployments (community vs. enterprise capabilities vary)
• Multi-database support via DBeaver drivers/extensions (JDBC-based)
• Admin console for server configuration and workspace management
• Deployment via Docker for quick setup and upgrades

Use Cases

• Provide a shared, browser-accessible SQL client for operations and analysts
• Centralize database connection credentials and control who can access what
• Lightweight alternative to installing desktop SQL clients across a team

Limitations and Considerations

• Some advanced DBeaver desktop features (deep ER modeling, extensive plugins) may not be available in the web UI
• Exact auth/SSO and enterprise management features depend on edition and configuration

CloudBeaver fits teams that want a web database client with centralized governance and broad JDBC connectivity. It is especially useful when you need controlled access to databases without requiring local tooling on every workstation.
