MySQL

MySQL is a widely used relational database management system (RDBMS) based on SQL (Structured Query Language). It is used to efficiently store, retrieve, and manage large amounts of data. MySQL is particularly popular for web applications and supports major platforms like Linux, Windows, and macOS. Some of the world’s largest websites, such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, use MySQL to manage their databases.

  • With MySQL, developers can create and manage databases, run queries to store and retrieve information efficiently.
  • It offers comprehensive features for managing tables, indexes, users, and access rights.
  • MySQL supports database scaling to handle large amounts of data and is often part of the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl/Python).
  • It provides tools for backup, restoration, and database performance optimization.
