Table of contents

The CloudBeaver server is a Java application. It is based on the OSGI framework and utilizes several Eclipse bundles.

Important: CloudBeaver includes OpenJDK, which is an open-source version of Java. This means you do not need to purchase a separate Java license to use CloudBeaver.

Back-end parts depend on DBeaver.

DBeaver is a multiplatform desktop application. It is also based on OSGI/Eclipse.
CloudBeaver uses a "headless" part of it - everything related to database connectivity and project management.

Libraries

  • Equinox as OSGi container.
  • Eclipse Platform for virtual file system and plugin management.
  • Jetty as a web server.
  • Java GraphQL as a front-end communication API.
  • DBeaver as database management platform.
  • Various 3rd party bundles with database drivers

Supported databases

In the CloudBeaver Community we support only free and open-source databases. For more information, see Supported databases

WebSockets

CloudBeaver uses a persistent WebSocket for real-time events. With a healthy socket, the UI updates live, SSO completes, and background jobs report progress. If the socket is blocked, the UI may look normal but never refresh.

Important: Default deployments already include WebSocket support.
For requirements and troubleshooting, see WebSockets.

If WebSockets are not supported by the network, proxy, or firewall, the server falls back to HTTP Long-Polling to deliver updates and task status.
