Adminer - PHP Based Database Manager

Adminer (formerly phpMinAdmin) is a full-featured database management tool written in PHP. It is based on just a single PHP file. In order to use Adminer, you just need to:

• Upload the file to your web server
• Browse the file via respective URL
• Enter your database details and log in
• After logging in, you can manage your database very easily.

Adminer is a light-weight alternative to phpMyAdmin and you do not need the hosting control panel access to manage your database. Adminer is available for MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MS SQL, Oracle, Firebird, SimpleDB, Elasticsearch and MongoDB.

Pros

• Lightweight: Adminer is a single PHP file, making it easy to deploy and use.
• Fast: It's known for being quicker and more responsive than phpMyAdmin.
• Multiple database support: Works with many different database types, not just MySQL.
• Easy to install: Only requires a PHP environment, making installation simple.

Cons

• Limited features compared to phpMyAdmin: While lightweight, it may lack some advanced features found in larger tools like phpMyAdmin.
• Not as well-known: May have fewer community resources and tutorials than more popular tools.
• No built-in user management: Requires external server configuration for secure multi-user access.
