A FEW PRACTICAL DETAILS

Before you dive in.

Can I download SQL Ocean yet?

The public installer is being prepared. The download page will carry the installer and supported operating systems when the release is ready.

Which databases can I connect to?

PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, SQL Server and MongoDB, with new adapters for DuckDB, Oracle, Snowflake, BigQuery, Redis, ClickHouse and Cassandra. There is also read-only DynamoDB browsing and S3-compatible storage. Features differ by provider; see the connection details and validation notes.

Why do the screenshots say DBOcean?

SQL Ocean is the new name for DBOcean. These are real development screenshots using demo data, captured before the branding update. They show the application, rather than a live connection to your database.

Can I bring my own AI model?

Yes. Ocean AI supports OpenAI and Claude API-key profiles, LM Studio, Ollama and compatible endpoints. Provider usage is billed separately. Explore Ocean AI.

Is the Fun menu optional?

Yes. Use the modern editor day to day, then open a Fun experience whenever you want a change. All ten experiences are included.
