About DbSchema
DbSchema connects to more than 100 SQL and NoSQL databases and turns them into ER diagrams and documentation. You can design schemas offline, query data, and deploy schema changes from the same model, and publish interactive HTML documentation that others can open in a browser.
Models are stored locally and can be versioned and reviewed in Git. A free Community Edition is available without signup, and paid editions include a 15-day Architect trial.
