Connecting Postgres database from MySQL Workbench

Question

Is there any way to connect to Postgres database using MySQL Workbench? I was hoping it could be easy enough, but didn't find any plugin available.

You could use Talend, which is an open-source-tool: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11685569/quickstart-database-migration-using-talend — John Mayor, Oct 16 '12 at 12:25

No. That's why it is called MySQL Workbench. The reason is that the MWB uses a lot of MySQL specific functionality. I don't think there is currently something similar for Postgres, but you could try Glom or pgadmin3.

A company-independent database manager is the commercial Aqua Data Studio - maybe it's worth a try.

I recommend to Check this link: https://data36.com/install-sql-workbench-postgresql/ and after you'll install dependencies/plugins to run Postgres into MWBench
