Free & Open Source · v3.4.0

Your databases.
One click away.

Give your team instant, secure access to AWS databases — without installing plugins, writing scripts, or managing credentials. ConnectionApp handles everything behind the scenes.

The difference is obvious

Connecting to a private database shouldn't require a toolkit. It should take 10 seconds.

The old way
  • Install and maintain additional AWS plugins
  • Write custom scripts for each environment
  • Manually look up database credentials
  • Track down the right server to tunnel through
  • Debug mysterious connection failures
  • Start over every time a session drops
With ConnectionApp
  • Nothing to install beyond the app itself
  • Select your project and environment. Done
  • Credentials are retrieved and filled in automatically
  • The right server is discovered and connected
  • Connection issues are resolved automatically
  • Reconnects instantly — your work isn't interrupted
Capabilities
Designed to stay out of your way
01

Instant access

Select a project, choose an environment, and connect. Database credentials are retrieved and applied automatically.

02

Saved connections

Bookmark the databases your team uses most. Reconnect in one click. Organize and reorder as needed.

03

Desktop & terminal

A full graphical application for daily use, plus a command-line tool for automation and scripting.

04

Automatic recovery

If a connection drops, the app reconnects transparently. Your database tools stay connected — no disruption.

Parallel connections

Connect to multiple databases at the same time. Each one is managed independently with no conflicts.

Not a wrapper around another tool. A complete, independent implementation of the AWS connection protocol.

Nothing stored

Database passwords are retrieved fresh every time. Credentials never touch your hard drive.

Your company's login

Uses your existing access permissions. No additional accounts, passwords, or API keys required.
