Sequel Ace is the maintained successor to the much loved Sequel Pro, rebuilt for modern Macs. It gives developers and database admins a calm, native way to work with MySQL and MariaDB servers. You can browse tables, edit rows, inspect structure and run queries without living in the terminal.

Key Features

  • Connects to MySQL 5.7 or later and MariaDB 10.0 or later, on local machines or remote servers
  • Browses and edits table content, structure and indexes, with filters to narrow down large result sets
  • Runs queries in a tabbed editor and lets you save favourite queries to reuse across connections
  • Connects through SSH tunnels or with AWS RDS IAM authentication for cloud hosted databases
  • Stores connection passwords in the macOS Keychain and keeps favourite connections ready for quick access
