We used to use SQL Server, the graphical interface makes us a duck, but to the Oracle and MySQL, the black box of DOS command suddenly dumbfounded, not only no visual interface, And remember a bunch of Oracle or MySQL commands.
faced with difficulties in the face of difficulty, it is necessary to produce new things. so Navicat and Plsql are born, so let's talk about these two tools briefly.
1. NavicatConcept
Navicat is a fast, reliable and affordable database management tool designed to simplify database management and reduce system administration costs.

Advantages
1. Navicat offers up to 7 languages to choose from and is recognized as the world's most popular database front-end user interface tool. It can be used to manage and develop native or remote MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, Oracle, and PostgreSQL databases.
2, for the Novice database server is quite easy to learn. With an extremely complete graphical user interface (GUI), Navicat lets you create, organize, access, and share information in a secure and simple way.
3. Navicat is suitable for three platforms-MicrosoftWindows, Mac OS X and Linux.

Remote (local) connection (Navicat for MySQL example)

To open the connection interface:
Fill in the connection information, including password and user name, and IP address:
Note
Before I was using navicatfor MySQL, just installed Navicat Formysql, did not install MySQL, because I was a remote connection to the other database, so even if I do not install MySQL locally, is not an error, now I want to test the local program, Need to use the connection to the local, so that the error, the next article will introduce the relevant knowledge of MySQL.
In short: Navicatfor MySQL only applies to the MySQL database; using navicat for MySQL must first install MySQL.
2. Plsql Developer
PL/SQL Developer is an integrated development environment that specializes in developing applications for Oracle databases. PL/SQL is also a programming language called the procedural SQL language (procedurallanguage/sql). PL/SQL is an extension of the Oracle database to the statement. In the use of ordinary SQL statements to add the characteristics of the programming language, so PL-SQL to the data Operations and query statements organized in the PL/SQL code of the process unit, through logical judgment, loop and other operations to achieve complex functions or calculations. PL/SQL is available only for Oracle databases. MySQL currently does not support PL/SQL.
Use
After the installation of Oracle, and then download the installation of Plsql Developer, after the corresponding configuration can be, here is no longer detailed.
3. Summary
