MySQL Administrator is a program for performing administrative operations, such as configuring, monitoring and starting and stopping a MySQL server, managing users and connections, performing backups, and a number of other administrative tasks.
Most tasks can be performed using a command-line client such as mysqladmin, or mysql, but MySQL Administrator has the following advantages:
Its graphical user interface makes it more intuitive.
It provides a better overview of the settings that are crucial for the performance, reliability, and security of your MySQL servers.
It displays performance indicators graphically, thus making it easier to determine and tune server settings.
MySQL Administrator is designed to work with MySQL versions 4.0 and higher.
MySQL Administrator is, to a large extent, the result of feedback received from many users over a period of several years. However, if you find it's lacking some feature important to you, or if you discover a bug, please use our MySQL Bug System to request features or report problems.
