I have very little experience with shared hosting environments. Typically, to access our clients' database servers, we either (a) go onsite, or (b) connect via VPN, or (c) connect to the web server (using RDP or VNC through SSH or something along those lines) then use tools installed on the web server console to connect to the database.
