Please define what you mean with design. Do you mean the drawing of relations between tables/databases (ie. drawing boxes with fields and lines between these fields etc) or the actual creating of those tables and databases. – Rinzwind Oct 2 '12 at 15:22

  1. I suggest Oracle Sql Developer .It's free, it's written in Java and it has support for Sql Server (you just need to add the JDBC driver from microsoft site, which it seems free too). It supports the following features: Develop,Administer,Model and migrate scenarios. It works with Oracle , MSSQL , MySQL and other providers

  2. DBeaver is free universal database tool for developers and database administrators.

  3. The repository contains the mysql-admin package which is a GUI tool for administrating MySQL

Design of databases would suggest the possibility to create entity-relationship models. All 3 your suggest are for creating databases. Not the design of one ;) – Rinzwind Oct 2 '12 at 15:14
For design I would suggest: jdeveloper (oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/overview/index.html) same website, different tool ;). Also MySQL workbench for MySQL can be used to design databases. – Rinzwind Oct 2 '12 at 15:16
