CloudBeaver - Web Database Manager - AMI by cloudimg

This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for cloudimg support services.

CloudBeaver CE is the browser edition of DBeaver, the desktop database tool with over 40,000 GitHub stars. This AMI delivers CloudBeaver CE fully installed, configured, and running behind an nginx reverse proxy - giving your team a shared database console without installing desktop clients on every machine.

Pulling the official CloudBeaver Docker image yourself means manually configuring a reverse proxy, setting up WebSocket upgrades for the SQL editor, managing credential generation, and provisioning storage. With this AMI, all of that is done for you:

• Nginx reverse proxy preconfigured with WebSocket upgrade for real-time SQL editing and result streaming
• Hardened first boot generates a unique admin password per instance - no shared or default credentials ever ship
• Dedicated data disk keeps your workspace (connections, users, query history) separate from the OS, enabling independent resizing without risking your system volume
• Auto-restart on failure ensures the container recovers without manual intervention

Compared to lightweight tools like Adminer or phpMyAdmin, CloudBeaver provides a full SQL editor with auto-completion, an execution plan viewer, role-based access control, and support for dozens of database drivers - not just MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Connect to PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, and many other databases over standard JDBC drivers. Browse databases, schemas, tables, views, and columns in the metadata navigator. Inspect and edit table data in a filterable, sortable grid.

Write SQL with syntax highlighting and auto-completion. Run statements and scripts, view results, execution plans, and query history. Export result sets in multiple formats. Manage multiple connections from a single console.

• On first boot, a one-shot service completes server configuration and creates the admin account with a fresh, instance-unique password stored in a root-only file
• CloudBeaver binds to the loopback interface - only nginx exposes the application
• No default or shared credentials ship in the image
• HTTPS can be configured post-launch by adding your TLS certificate to the nginx configuration

CloudBeaver runs as a Java web application inside a Docker container, bound to localhost and fronted by nginx on port 80. Docker and the reverse proxy start on boot. The CloudBeaver workspace - server configuration, user accounts, saved connections, and query history - lives on a dedicated data disk that is independently resizable.

Startup engineering teams (5-20 developers) needing to query production RDS PostgreSQL or MySQL instances without distributing database credentials or requiring local client installs on every laptop.

Data analytics bootcamps and training programs running 20-30 concurrent student sessions against a shared MySQL or PostgreSQL training database, with role-based access ensuring students only see their own schemas.

Remote-first teams who need secure browser-based database access from any location without VPN tooling or desktop software distribution.

DevOps and platform teams providing a self-service SQL console to developers and analysts while maintaining centralized access control and audit through CloudBeaver's built-in user and role management.

Add teams and users with scoped permissions. Control which connections each role can access, whether users can create their own connections, and what level of data modification is allowed.

A built-in health endpoint answers on the reverse proxy for load-balancer and uptime checks. The container auto-restarts on failure. The dedicated data disk means you can resize storage without touching the OS volume.

Launch the AMI, retrieve the generated admin password from the root-only file, sign in through your browser, and start adding database connections immediately. To discuss a deployment walkthrough or team onboarding, contact cloudimg support.
