is the only way to access the db would be via php postgresql
admin screen?
is there any interface such as sql server?
The database is PostgreSQL or Oracle based. You can use any PostgreSQL or Oracle administration tool (psql or phpPgAdmin for PostgreSQL or Oracle Enterprise Manager or SQL*Plus for Oracle, for example) to view the contents of the MySource Matrix tables. We do not recommend accessing the database directly via these tools and you will void your Service Level Agreement if you do this in a production environment.
Sure. Without voiding the SLA what are the other options for viewing the tables

The Administration Interface is the primary method for interacting with the Matrix data. Any raw access to the Matrix tables is not covered by the SLA and should only ever be performed on development systems.
I'm not sure why viewing tables would void an SLA, but certainly dont touch any of the data in them or your system will almost certainly break.

Essentially, any non-Matrix based access to the database by the client is not allowed under an uptime guaranteed SLA. It just protects both the client and Squiz.
