PRODUCTION SAFETY
Read-only MySQL connections for production
One wrong click on prod hurts. VloamDb makes production obvious with color labels and optional read-only mode.
How to tell production MySQL apart from staging
Name connections clearly and assign color tags so staging and production never look the same in the sidebar—especially when you keep many environments open.
When to enable MySQL read-only mode
Turn on read-only for sensitive connections. Writes are blocked before they become incidents. Import and export also respect read-only.
- Optional SSH tunnel
- Still browse tables and run SELECT
- Credentials stay on your machine
Trial it on a staging clone of production
Download VloamDb, recreate one production-like connection as read-only, and confirm UI cues plus write blocks match how your team works before you standardize.

FAQ
Does VloamDb support MySQL only?
Yes—VloamDb is a MySQL-only desktop client for macOS and Windows. Keep another tool for Postgres, Oracle, or multi-engine DBA work.
Is unlock a subscription?
No. After the trial, unlock is a one-time purchase bound to your checkout email—not a monthly seat fee.
