PowerBuilder是Powersoft（美国著名的数据库应用开发工具厂商，现已被Sybase收购）推出的可视化数据库集成开发工具，它是一个专业的客户机／服务器应用进程开发工具。PowerBuilder目前的最新版本是12.6，最新版本最大特点是支持了Odata，但无论如何，这个语言已经走向末落。它能够设计传统的基于客户机／服务器体系结构的应用系统，从6.0版本开始也能够开发基于Internet的应用系统（Web.PB）。

PowerBuilder is an integrated development environment owned by Sybase, a division of SAP. It has been in use since 1991, peaking around 1998 with around 100,000 users. In May of 2015 SAP announced that Appeon would take over future development and marketing of PowerBuilder while Intellectual Property would remain with SAP.
