[GENERAL] Front End Application (OFF-TOPIC)

2010-09-24 Thread Carlos Mennens
I am using PostgreSQL to hold my entire I.T. inventory for my company.
I am manually entering the data in via hand through the Linux command
line and the 'psql' utility which is great for me but other co-workers
in I.T. have no understanding of how to view the schema and I wanted
to see if anyone had any recommendations for software or applications
I could use that would display all my PostgreSQL data to them over the
web of sorts? Something that lets them view the warranty expiration
dates I entered in the Dell table. I don't want an administrative tool
like 'phppgadmin' or anything but more like a utility that users can
go in and view the database schema and data for reference only.

Sorry if this is not the correct forum to ask this kind of question
but I figured with everyone on the list using this in so many
different varieties, I would find something.

Thanks for your support!

Microsoft Access
Open Office Base
Pentaho
Jaspersoft

There is a lot of stuff out there.

With PHP, it's very easy to build a Web interface to a PostgreSQL database. 
Even I have managed that :D
