• MySQL Workbench, which provides visual data modeling, SQL development, and comprehensive administration tools for MySQL server configuration, user administration, and much more.
• The MySQL Enterprise Monitor, a "Virtual DBA assistant" that helps MySQL DBAs manage more MySQL databases as well as find and fix problems before they become serious problems or costly outages.
• The MySQL Query Analyzer, which helps improve your C# and .Net application performance by monitoring query performance and accurately pinpointing SQL code that is causing a slow down.
• MySQL Enterprise Backup, to perform online hot MySQL backups.
