The SQL Editor provides color syntax highlighting, auto-complete, reuse of SQL snippets, and execution history of SQL. MySQL Workbench delivers visual tools for creating, executing, and optimizing SQL queries.
It includes everything a data modeler needs for creating complex ER models, forward and reverse engineering, and also delivers key features for performing difficult change management and documentation tasks that normally require much time and effort. MySQL Workbench enables a DBA, developer, or data architect to visually design, model, generate, and manage databases.
