Database governance for teams and AI agents, putting schema change, access control and compliance behind one reviewed workflow.
Bytebase sits between your users and your databases as a single control plane, treating human developers and AI agents as the same kind of caller. Every change and every query is reviewed, controlled and recorded, which replaces the usual scatter of migration scripts, SQL clients and ticketing systems with one place to look.
Engine coverage is wide. PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB, Redis, MariaDB, TiDB, Snowflake, ClickHouse, Spanner and OceanBase are supported, alongside integrations spanning infrastructure as code, identity providers, collaboration tools, ITSM, log streaming and secret managers.
The platform is organized around four concerns.
- Change management: request, review, deploy and roll back through a web console, or drive the same flow from GitHub and GitLab as database-as-code.
- SQL review: more than two hundred lint rules enforce standards before a statement reaches production.
- Access control: project and workspace roles, time-boxed grants that revoke themselves, and column-level masking applied by role at query time.
- Compliance: a complete audit trail, data classification for sensitive columns, and policy managed as code through the Terraform provider and API.
An MCP server connects AI agents and IDEs to Bytebase, while the SQL editor adds text-to-SQL and an assistant that executes workflows from plain language requests.
Running it takes one Docker command or a Helm install, then a setup wizard on port 8080. Development teams, DBAs and security teams each get a documented path through the same platform.
