Recently, I was telling you about Adminer, an extraordinary front end for MySQL and MariaDB. I was saying that this kind of application can be a bit misleading because they are so light that they do not seem to be powerful. However, the opposite is true. Well, today I will tell you how to install SQLBuddy on CentOS 8 and instead of its special features.

SQLBuddy is an application that provides a web interface for data in MySQL and SQLite. It is quite light and easy to install on a server. Thanks to its lightness we can be sure that it will not consume resources unnecessarily.

On the other hand, it is a very complete application because not only we will be able to visualize data but also we will be able to execute all type of SQL sentences.
