MySQL GUI tool is known for integrating SQL development, database design, administration, creation, and maintenance into single and useful development environment for database systems. Here is the list of some of the best MySQL GUI tools to choose the one that gives quality results.
Does anyone know a comprehensive Mac app to create SQL Diagramms?I think http://ondras.zarovi.cz/sql/demo/ is quite good, but it's a little bit too basic.
I would like to create the database schema, the relations between the tables (including labels for e.g. n:m relations), add comments, export to SQL, and so on to run from my Mac.

MySQL Workbench is good enough for most programming demands. You can create EER Model and can also synchronize the model with DB Changes or vice versa. You can use it with no cost as it's a open-source application. I have been using MySQL for a year and it is very useful for me. I recommend it to you if you don't need any enterprise features and performance.
The only Mac only tool I know (and I would love to hear of others here) is SQLEditor. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be any support for Stored Procedures or other objects beyond tables and views.
There are also cross-platform solutions (mostly Java-based). In a recent search I evaluated DBWrench and DBVisualizer. When all was said and done, I decided to stay with a Windows solution running under Parallels.
Andrew LazarusAndrew LazarusMySQL Workbench is great, though I found that in a lot of cases OmniGraffle works wonderful, especially if you're not so much into 'doing it painfully correct according to theory learnt at university' but rather getting the job done.
You might want to check out the Navicat line of products. I use Navicat Premium and it's a really great all-in-one tool for many DBs, including MySQL, Postgres, SQLITE, Oracle, and MS SQL Server. It includes a Model tab where you can view and edit existing DBs or create de novo ones, sketch everything out, define relationships, export SQL, have access to an auto-layout function, and all sorts of other goodies.
There are several versions stepping up to the Premium product, including a separate Data Modeler program, so you'll have to browse around to see what fits your needs. It will set you back a little bit of cash, depending on the version, but you can download a 30-day free trial to make sure it's what you need.
I hope this helps!
The free SQL tool of choice for me is SQuirreLSQL. It is a Java application, but very responsive, and you can install both DB drivers and plugins from it, and one of them allows for reverse-engineering and diagramming databases.
Aqua Data Studio runs on Mac OS X as a mixed Cocoa/Java application, with native performance, and includes Entity-Relationship modeling capabilities.
I also use Vertabelo and I can recommend it, too. It is 100% web-based. You can work on your models either in Chrome, or in Safari (the support for Safari browser was added a few month ago). Vertabelo's graphical tools for designing database models are simply amazing! Simple and intuitive, and yet very comprehensive and professional. There's no desktop license, no downloads and no installation. You can work remotely from any computer connected to the web. If you would like to get to know how Vertabelo works, you can try it without any registration: https://my.vertabelo.com/try
DBSchema is also awesome. Best thing is that you can do reverse engineering as well as modeling together at once. After you change the diagram, you change the database; you can import those changes back in the diagram.
The only flaw is ordering of column names in the diagrams - that do not necessarily match with the ordinality of the column names in the real database if you do so.
I would rate it to be one of the super nice applications.
IconDaemonCheck out http://www.yworks.com/en/index.html, might not be what you are looking for but it has ER modelling and others...
I recommend Vertabelo. Vertabelo is an online database designer working under Chrome developed by company I work for.
The most important feature of this tool is that it allow to share database models across the team and collaborate on them via web browser.
Others Vertabelo features include:
- Model versioning
- Support for PosgreSql, MySQL, Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB2, SQLite, HSQLDB
- Dynamic/Visual search
- Live database model validation
- Reverse engineering
Best Database For Mac Os
Vertabelo is free to use for smaller projects (up to 3 models and 20 tables within each model) and have commercial versions for larger database projects.
Mysql Server Mac
My preferred tool for modeling in OS X, is Visual Paradigm (VP-UML). They have a free community edition, which is great for creating ERD - but if you want to generate the DDL from your ERD, you'll need to purchase the standard edition.
It's also cross-platform, so that's another boon.

Sequel Pro is a very competent MySQL GUI for mac.
You can also provide your ec2 .pem-file for ssh login, if you want.
