In their own words

phpLiteAdmin

phpLiteAdmin is a free, web-based SQLite administration tool written in PHP. Its single PHP source file can be placed on a server and opened in a browser without installation, supporting SQLite 2 and SQLite 3 databases. It can create and delete databases, manage tables and columns, browse and edit records, and manage indexes and triggers. Import and export cover tables, structure, indexes, and data in SQL and CSV formats. Other tools include graphical record search, a free-form SQL query editor, and bar, pie, and line charts. The project describes a password-protected interface with login cookies and separate passwords for different installations. It says the interface is available in 15 languages and supports custom and community CSS themes. Hosting requires PHP 5.2.4 or later and an enabled PDO, SQLite3, or SQLiteDatabase extension. PDO and SQLite3 handle SQLite 3, while SQLiteDatabase handles SQLite 2. The stable download is version 1.9.8.2; development builds are updated automatically and tested less thoroughly. The project offers the software under GNU GPL version 3 or any later version, without warranty.

Trusted Postgres Architect

Trusted Postgres Architect (TPA) is a free, Ansible-based tool for deploying and managing Postgres clusters using EDB recommendations. Users describe cluster topology and configuration in declarative YAML. TPA can provision AWS EC2 instances and Docker containers, or use existing servers and virtual machines when connection details are supplied. It installs and configures Postgres and related components, including replication and backups; architecture-dependent components can include PGD, Barman, PgBouncer, repmgr, and Postgres extensions. TPA can run tests specific to the cluster architecture and platform, apply configuration changes, perform switchovers, and carry out documented zero-downtime minor-version upgrades. Its configuration documentation lists PostgreSQL, EDB Postgres Extended, and EDB Postgres Advanced Server versions 13 through 18. The tool supports self-hosted Linux deployments and offers STIG and CIS configuration options, though these do not guarantee that a cluster meets those standards. TPA does not support major-version Postgres upgrades through the `tpaexec upgrade` command. Users can extend it with custom Ansible commands, tests, and deployment hook scripts.
