Navicat Collaboration provides the means for your team to collaborate on a variety of database objects, including connection settings, queries, aggregation pipelines, snippets, model workspaces, BI workspaces and virtual group information. Navicat offers two options for Collaboration: Navicat Cloud and Navicat On-Prem Server. Whereas Navicat Cloud offers a central space for your team to store Navicat objects, Navicat On-Prem Server is an on-premise solution for hosting a cloud environment where you can securely store Navicat objects internally at your location. Today's blog will describe how Navicat On-Prem Server helps foster collaboration within your team and manage MySQL and MariaDB instances more effectively.
Navicat On-Prem Server At a Glance
Navicat On-Prem Server is an on-premise solution that lets you host a private cloud environment for managing Navicat files internally, enabling distributed teams to collaborate in real time, share data, coordinate tasks, and communicate seamlessly through a centralized platform.
With Navicat On-Prem Server, you retain full control over your system and guarantee complete data privacy, while still enjoying the convenience and features of a cloud-based solution. It also provides powerful management tools for MySQL and MariaDB databases, allowing you to easily administer, monitor, and manage your databases efficiently.
Collaboration Tools
Using Navicat On-Prem Server, you can synchronize your connection settings, queries, aggregation pipelines, snippets, model workspaces, BI workspaces, and virtual group information across all your devices. You can also invite your colleagues to join the project, enabling them to create and edit files collaboratively so you can work together in real-time from anywhere across the globe.
Using the Object Filter, you can locate the specific objects you need quickly through vast amounts of content, ensuring you can always find the objects that matter most, in a timely fashion.
You can assign a role to coworkers for each project they work on and grant them access to projects based on their business functions. Each role determines whether a team member can create, view, and modify project files.
All collaborative activities are tracked in real time within the Activity Log, allowing you to easily monitor everything happening in your project. You can also review the recent actions of specific team members, giving everyone a clear view of what others are working on.
MySQL and MariaDB Management
Navicat On-Prem Server comes with a comprehensive set of tools for efficiently managing core database objects, allowing you to:
- administer users, permissions, and privileges
- browse and manage tables, views, events, functions, and stored procedures
- write, execute, and analyze database queries via the built-in SQL editor
MySQL and MariaDB connections are managed through an intuitive, user-friendly interface. Its simple design allows you to perform essential database operations with ease. Advanced search and filtering tools help you quickly find and work with specific database objects.
The clear and responsive interface breaks down query writing into structured tabs - perfect for managing a variety of database objects, including tables, views, events and functions.
Navicat On-Prem Server features both a grid-style interface and detailed form view for viewing, updating, and deleting records. There are also specialized cell editors for text, hexadecimal, images, and web content. There are also advanced sorting and filtering options to further enhance your data management capabilities.
Many of the same features found in Navicat development and administration tools are also included in Navicat On-Prem Server to help accelerate the coding process. These include syntax highlighting, query explain, query result pinning, along with SQL stats such as query execution time.
