Thanks to its reverse engineering capabilities, Open ModelSphere allows graphical visualization of your relational database's architecture, thus making modifications easy. As a complete data modeling tool / software, it allows the generation of SQL scripts from your model as well. It can also generate SQL script enabling you to synchronize your existing database with the model that you modified. Open ModelSphere DM supports all the database management systems in a generic manner. For some of them, like Oracle, Informix and DB2, Grandite offers commercial add-ons that support particular database modeling features, specific to the various concepts.

Open ModelSphere also includes expert modules to validate the integrity of your architecture and the coherence of what you established (meeting the requirements of each DBMS). This validation expertise will help you save research time among the multitude of restrictions that exists in each management system.
