Hello,

We are happy to announce the release of SQL Maestro 1.5. The trial version of the software is always available at http://www.sqlmaestro.com/products/download.html.

In this version we have implemented a possibility to connect to a remote MySQL server using a secure protocol. The secure connection is established through the Secure SHell (SSH) tunnel, which guarantees a high security for the data transmission between a local PC and remote MySQL server. All the parameters for the SSH connection are stored in database profiles as extra properties, which can be specified during database creation/registration process.

In addition to this feature, we have made some small improvements and several minor bug fixes. The full news article can be read at http://www.sqlmaestro.com/news.html?id=14.

SQL Maestro is a powerful Win32 GUI solution for MySQL server administration and database development. This product supports all the latest versions of MySQL, including MySQL 4.1/5.0, and all of the most important MySQL features, including stored procedures and functions, InnoDB foreign keys, user-definable functions, transaction-safe tables, BLOB and TEXT field types, MySQL 4.x user privilege extensions and many more.
