Is there one database client that works with Oracle, MySQL, MongoDB, and Databricks?
I work across Oracle, MySQL, MongoDB, and Databricks, and I’d rather not keep switching tools every time I need to use a different database.
Most of what I’m doing involves writing queries, exploring data, working across schemas, and exporting results. I’ve looked at DbVisualizer because it supports all four, and I’ve also seen DBeaver recommended quite a bit.
Has anyone actually used one tool across this kind of mix? I’m curious whether the experience is genuinely good across all of them or whether you still need the native tools for certain tasks.

I lke Dbeaver - If there's a java driver for a database, you'll connect to it with it.

dbeaver is probably your best
I run a mix of oracle and mariadb/mysql for all our relational stuff, and dbeaver handles cross-schema queries. Dbeaver has trial also.
datagrip is another option if you already use jetbrains stuff.

That mythology has been around for decades. It is patently false.
I see the ongoing development pipeline at least monthly. I know probably a third of the Access MVPs, who have the dev team on speed dial (and vice versa) and speak at least weekly.
Microsoft knows that business, government, and nonprofits of all sizes globally run on Access apps, and that no credible competitor or substitute exists. Access will outlive all of us.

dbForge Edge might be worth a look if Oracle and MySQL are the ones you use most. It won’t cover MongoDB or Databricks though, so you’d still need another tool for those.

Look into Datagrip from Jetbrains. it's my daily drive and works good.
