Any plug-ins for MySQL round-tripping?
« on: January 27, 2014, 02:54:10 am »
Has anyone developed plug-ins or add-ons compatible with EA v10.x that would allow round-trip data modeling for MySQL? In other words, like Erwin can evidently do, can I change my MySQL DB model in EA, then have EA generate difference scripts that would apply the changes to a live MySQL DB? This would be a powerful thing.

Or would it be better to use a MySQL-specific tool rather than EA if MySQL is my DBMS of choice for a given project? Would prefer to stick with EA.

Failing that, is there any such round-tripping add-in / plug-in for EA that would allow data model round-tripping, as described above, for PostgreSQL?

Thanks.

qwerty

I have only heard of people looking for that. Never for someone having done it.

Thanks Qwerty. I think MySQL Workbench can do round-trip data modeling. Something I'll be looking into.
