Systems and methods for dynamically updating a user interface

A system comprising:

• a communication interface;
• a user interface;
• a processor;
• and
• data storage containing instructions executable by the processor for carrying out a set of functions, the set functions comprising:
• displaying, via a user interface of a computing device, a database-coordination workspace that comprises a database-access area and a working area, wherein:
• the database-access area comprises a plurality of selectable database-access elements that each correspond to a different respective database in a plurality of databases, and
• each selectable database-access element is operable to display within the working area a respective database-management window for the corresponding database;
• receiving, via the user interface, selections of the database-access elements, and responsive to each such selection, displaying in the working area a corresponding database-management window,
• wherein, when at least one database-management window is currently displayed in the working area:
• the working area is collectively fully occupied by the one or more currently displayed database-management windows, and
• each currently displayed database-management window initially occupies a predetermined respective fraction of the working area.
