Access to Databases
You can install a MariaDb or PostgreSQL client on your workstation, laptop, or mobile device. These are freely available for all common operating systems. Please use the latest versions. Please note that access is only possible from the university network. Access from outside the network is only possible when using the VPN client.
From the web application server, you can access your MariaDb or PostgreSQL database(s) via the common PHP extensions, Perl-DBI, or Python connectors installed there.
phpMyAdmin is probably the best-known client for convenient management of MariaDb/MySQL databases via a web browser. You can access a phpMyAdmin installation set up centrally by the RRZ at the URL:
https://pma.rrz.uni-hamburg.de
Please note that for security reasons, access to phpMyAdmin is restricted to the University of Hamburg network. If you want to use phpMyAdmin from home, please use the VPN client provided by the RRZ.
