We are thrilled to inform our Oracle users that dbForge Studio for Oracle got a really massive update that took database development and presentation of the development results to a new level! By popular request of our users of the Professional edition of dbForge Studio for Oracle, we have developed the advanced features and implemented them in the Enterprise edition of brand new dbForge Studio for Oracle, v4.0.
Enterprise Edition
Along with all features of the Professional edition, the new Enterprise edition of dbForge Studio for Oracle includes the following exclusive features.
Data Generator
The Data Generator feature allows generating millions of records of meaningful test data in a wink. A rich collection of data generators and advanced customization options will make your test data look like real-world data. In addition, the tool allows creating your own unique data generators!
Documenter
We are glad to present the Documenter feature for documenting and presentation of the Oracle schemas. The schema structure is presented as a neat navigation tree. Each item of the tree allows displaying properties of each schema object as a skinned HTML list with the ability to set up color palettes and fonts. The tuned variant of database documentation can be exported to HTML, PDF, and MARKDOWN.
Data Import/Export
Support for Google Sheets
Now you can easily migrate table data between your Oracle tables and Google Spreadsheets. All you need to do is to specify an URL/ID of your Google Spreadsheets table, and our handy Data Export Wizard and Data Import Wizard will do the rest of the work for you!
Support for JSON Data
The Data Import and Data Export functionality support JSON, an open-standard format that uses human-readable text to transmit data objects consisting of attribute-value pairs.
Preview of Generated Update Script in the Wizard
When importing data, you can specify what you would like to do with the generated Update script, – opened it in the internal editor, save it to a file, or execute it immediately against a database.
Detection of Column Types when Importing Data from Excel Format
When you import data from the Excel files, dbForge Studio for Oracle analyzes column data and automatically assigns data types to them.
