Sequel Ace overview

Sequel Ace is the "sequel" to longtime macOS tool Sequel Pro. Sequel Ace is a fast, easy-to-use Mac database management application for working with MySQL & MariaDB databases.

With Sequel Ace, you can write custom queries, or utilize the built-in filtering system to scope down to just what you're looking for. SSH, socket, and local connections are all supported, making all your databases accessible with ease.

What’s new in version 5.2.0

  • Added support for Aws Iam authentication for Amazon Rds connections (including profile/role flows)
  • Rewrote default bundles to avoid removed macOS scripting runtimes, with clearer runtime-missing warnings
  • Added MySQL 8+ fallback logic for optimized field type estimation when Procedure Analyse is unavailable
  • Added detection and user alerts for macOS Local Network permission denials behind Ssh “No route to host” errors
  • Added support for mysql:// Urls for Socket connections
  • Fixed Sql “Copy as Insert” numeric field quoting/type handling
  • Fixed Ssh host-key reconnect prompt freezes and repeated metadata/status error loops
  • Fixed pinned-table behavior by scoping pins to connection identity and migrating legacy pinned-table data
  • Fixed multiple export and process-list issues (null serialization, export path/cancel handling, Xml/Bit export correctness, network-volume bookmark handling)

This is an amazingly well designed app that takes the crown after the demise of equally great Sequel Pro. I use it locally, into Docker and over ssh to real web sites. I import, export, test and run sql modifications. Wonderful experience.

I was a happy user of Sequrl Pro which, unfortunately, was discontinued. Sequel Ace takes up the concept and presentation. The interface is clear and easy to use. For managing MySQL databases, it's the ideal solution.
