MaxCC is a cross-platform database comparison utility, created by Code Development. It enables you to compare table structures and data between multiple databases and automatically produce update scripts to equalize the structure or data in the target database with the source.

With MaxCC you can:

• Manage versioning of database configurations, which gives you firm control over all changes made to the database schema, especially during team efforts. Rolling back to a previous state or maintaining different branches of the database configuration becomes as easy (and as vital) as managing code using a code versioning suite.
• Create and maintain a library of valid database configurations and upgrade scripts, and archive your clients' configurations for support or audit purposes.

MaxCC is used in the following way:

• You create direct connections to one or more databases (Oracle or MS SQL)
• MaxCC analyses the table structure and data in each database, optionally creating a snapshot of the database configuration which can be used for backup or change management purposes
• MaxCC creates a detailed report of the differences between the two databases or snapshots, and allows you to manually review and select which of these changes you want applied to the target database
• MaxCC will then automatically create an SQL script to apply the selected changes on the target database
• You simply run the script to get your target database up to date with the source, or to undo some of the changes made since your last snapshot

The latest version includes the following key new features:

• Cross-platform compatibility (Windows, Linux/Unix)
• Cross-browser front end (Mozilla, Internet Explorer)
• Reporting
• Enhanced user interface
• Direct connection to compared databases
• Configuration version control facilities (You can store configuration snapshots in the database and then reload them for comparison with the current configuration or for comparison with any previous saved configurations. Similar to CVS but for configurations.
