Get Started with Database Toolbox

Database Toolbox™ provides functions and an app for interacting with relational and NoSQL databases. The toolbox supports any ODBC-compliant or JDBC-compliant relational database and provides NoSQL support for Apache^® Cassandra^®, MongoDB^®, and Neo4j^®.

Native interfaces for MySQL^®, PostgreSQL, and SQLite provide functionality that streamlines interaction with your database. The interfaces ship with third-party drivers that connect to your database in deployed and cloud environments without additional setup or installation.

With the Database Explorer app, you can explore relational data interactively and generate MATLAB^® code to automate or operationalize database workflows. For large data workflows, you can run query filters directly on your SQL queries.
