From a new posting on the PHP Magazine website today:
MySQL AB has announced the releases of a pair of tools that will provide a visual interface to MySQL database data -- MySQL Query Browser and MySQL Administrator. MySQL Query Browser is a GUI toolset that simplifies database usage. Users can visually select, query, create, modify and delete database fields and tables. The integrated script editor provides a visual interface for creating, editing and debugging SQL (define) scripts. Using the results window in the Query Browser, users can also now manage and compare multiple queries. MySQL Administrator is a visual console that handles top-line database operations like user administration, backup/restore, log views and server configuration.
MySQL Query Browser and MySQL Administrator are available for Windows and Linux under MySQL's dual licensing strategy. Users can pay for a commercial MySQL license to use Query Browser and administrator in a bundle called MySQL Administration Suite, at $295 per user, or use it for free under the GPL license. For Linux users, the tools are only offered as compiled binaries for SUSE Linux 9.1 and Red Hat Linux 9. Uncompiled Tar Linux source files are also available.
These both look like great tools for just about anyone looking for a more rich MySQL experience in their administration.
