Architecture: SAP DB Tools 

The SAP DB tools Database Manager and Replication Manager each consist of a server part and a client part. The server part is responsible for the functions, and the user uses the client to access the tool.

The SAP DB tool SQL Studio has a graphical user interface and accesses the database instance through ODBC.

Web clients are also available for the Database Manager and SQL Studio.
