It wraps these migration capabilities in a collaborative interface with approval workflows, audit trails, and enterprise controls. As the fastest-growing open source solution in this space, Bytebase has become the top choice for teams seeking a unified database DevSecOps platform.

### SQL Clients

Traditional SQL clients like DBeaver, DataGrip, and Navicat excel at individual database access but weren't built for team collaboration or enterprise security. Bytebase transforms SQL access from a personal tool into an enterprise-ready platform—providing not just query capabilities, but also role-based permissions, data masking, audit logging, and centralized governance that eliminates the need to share database credentials.
