You can use PowerDesigner from Sybase. Windows only. A fully
functional trial version (45 days) is downloadable at www.sybase.com.
it has:
- support for al major databases (Postgresql, Sybase, Oracle, MS SQL,
Mysql)
- support to generate triggers automatically
- nice reporting features
- ability to reverse engineer existing databases (through ODBC of from
a file)
- central repository (database) storage, or storage of your model in
an XML file (which I use to auto generate perl classes from my saved
model)
- UML modeling
- lots of other buzzword-compliant features ";-)
It is an expensive tool, but if you do serious design work, you'll
need a tool like this
