How can we improve our MySQL tools?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. SQL Monitor: Have the option to send an alert each time a job fails.

    For all SQL Monitor, but I didn't see an appropriate forum.

    I'd like to have the option to send an alert each time a job fails. (similar to an "event"). Ideally we could set a threshold for the maximum number of times we get alerted in a 24 hour period.

    This was the behavior before Version 11.2.13 when the behavior was "fixed" to only send an alert the first time a job failed.

    The job failing alert now only ends when the job successfully runs. Before, an alert was raised each time the job failed.

    While not everyone would want…

  3. ER diagram tool like ERDLab?

    This new tool idea has been proposed several times but nothing came out of it.

    Does Red-gate plan to build a database design tool anytime soon?

    I use https://www.erdlab.io but it is a cloud based app. Having a desktop tool which I can use offline too would be great. Red-gate team please consider this suggestion and add an ER diagram tool in your products list.

  6. Allow export of comparison results

    Once a comparison is done, allow the result to be exported or at least copyable so it can be saved for reference.

  7. Deployment scripts don't retain the names of foreign keys. Should use the CONSTRAINT `name` syntax when generating the script.

    Having foreign key constrains renamed things like 'ibfk3' causes maintenance problems. When generating an update script, the tool should retain the name of the foreign key by using the CONSTRAINT `nameof_constraint` syntax before the FOREIGN KEY keywords.

  9. It will be great if you create "Sql Search" for MySql.

    Sql Search for Microsoft Sql Server is realized as plugin but for MySql it can be standalone application or plugin for MySql Workbench.

  11. Source Control for MySQL

    It would be great to see your Source Control for Oracle product ported to support MySQL.

    Note from Red Gate: please do comment on which source control system you use (e.g. Git/Mercurial/Subversion/TFS etc.), as well as any other critical features for you

  13. Display ports

    When I compare databases running on the same machine but on different ports, I cannot distinguish between the left and right dabase in the result view. Better to add the port behind the hostname

  15. Problems in database design

    Maybe some tool that can show problems in database design like almost redundant object names or cols of a table or/and too many cols on tables are good samples.

  16. some mysql compare

    Both tools should be combined into a single user interface. Easy for users to switch data structure comparison or contrast. And, we should support projects run multiple comparison at same time.This will improve efficiency.

    Can you please generate help documentation for the MySQL Tools similar to what is available for SQL Compare and Schema Compare for Oracle.

  18. Scriptfolder feature

    I know the MySQL bundles does not have the source control - and there is already an idea asking for it, but if the MySQL compare can generate and work with script folder like the oracle one does, we can check in the folder manually and make the tool as robust as oracle bundles

  19. Add decent line breaking in view definition comparisons

    Now, the whole view definition is on a single line and the compare display is worthless. Please add line breaks in the definition statement (just for display) so the statement can be inspected. Maybe just replace blanks with line breaks...

  20. Add option to ignore column order in table definition compare

    An option to ignore the order of columns between source and target table would be great. Especially since MySQL Compare can't insert new columns at the right position.
