Schema documentation your auditors will accept

Precision Schema Design for Mimer SQL

DbSchema connects to Mimer SQL over JDBC and turns the database into ER diagrams, visual schema editing, and documentation precise enough for the industries Mimer serves — aerospace, automotive, and medical devices.

  • Reverse-engineer the Mimer catalog into a navigable ER diagram
  • Edit tables on the canvas; the DDL is generated for you
  • Produce documentation fit for compliance and certification reviews
  • Work from Windows, macOS, or Linux

In Regulated Work, the Data Model
Is Part of the Evidence

Mimer SQL runs inside aerospace, automotive, and medical-device systems precisely because it takes ACID transactions and the SQL standard seriously. The certification file for such a system needs an accurate schema reference — and hand-drawn diagrams drift out of date the week after the review.

DbSchema reads the catalog itself, so the diagram and the documentation describe the database as it actually is, every time you regenerate them.

Edit, Compare & Query
Mimer SQL from One Desktop Tool

Visual tooling for a database usually driven from the BSQL command line.

Edit a Mimer SQL schema visually on the diagram canvas
Change the Model Where You Can See It

Adjust tables, columns, and constraints directly on the diagram — DbSchema writes the DDL, and referential integrity stays visible while you work.

Compare Mimer SQL schemas between development and production
Prove Dev and Production Match

Compare Mimer schemas across environments, inspect each structural difference, and generate change statements only after you have read them.

Run standards-compliant SQL against Mimer SQL in DbSchema
A Desktop Alternative to BSQL

Run queries and DDL against your Mimer instance with autocomplete, editable result grids, and exports — no command-line session required.

Documentation That Survives
a Certification Review

One click turns the Mimer catalog into interactive HTML5 documentation: table structures, data types, constraints, and relationships, browsable by anyone with the file. Regenerate it after each change and the audit trail stays current without manual effort.

Connecting to Mimer SQL

The Mimer JDBC driver is not bundled with DbSchema: download it from the Mimer developer pages (developer.mimer.com) and register the JAR under driver class com.mimer.jdbc.Driver. The default port is 1360, giving a URL of the form jdbc:mimer://host:1360/dbname.

Local connections use a named pipe by default and need no extra setup; for remote access, enable network access in the MIMCONTROL configuration first. Step-by-step driver setup is on the Mimer SQL JDBC driver page.
