MySQL:
MySQL is a freely available open source Relational Database Management System
(RDBMS) that uses Structured Query Language (SQL).
MySQL can be downloaded from site www.mysql.org. MySQL is created and
supported by MySQL AB, a company based in Sweden.
In MySQL database, information is stored in tables. A single MySQL database can
contain many tables at once and store thousands of individuals records.
 MySQL provides you with a rich set of features that support a secure environment for
storing, maintaining and accessing data.
MySQL is a fast, reliable, scalable alternative to many of the commercial RDBMS
available today.

Structured Query Language (SQL)

In order to access data within the MySQL database, all the programmers and users
must use, Structured Query Language (SQL).
SQL is the set of commands that is recognized by all RDBMS.
The Structured Query Language (SQL) is a language that enables you to create and
operate on relational database, which are sets of related information stored in tables.
The SQL has proved to be a standard language as it allows users to learn one set of
command and use it to create, retrieve, alter and transfer information regardless of
whether they are working on a PC, a workstation, a mini, or a mainframe.

MySQL Database System is a combination of a MySQL server and a MySQL database.

MySQL Database System operates using client/server architecture, in which the server runs
on the machine containing the databases and clients connects to the server over a network.
SQL Server and Clients:
MySQL Server:
Listens for client request coming in over the network.
Accesses database contents according to those requests.
Provides contents to the clients

MySQL Clients:
MySQL clients are programs that connect to the MySQL server and issue queries in a
pre-specified format.
MySQL is compatible with the standards based SQL. The client program may contact
the server programmatically or manually.

Features of MySQL:
1. Speed: If the server hardware is optimal, MySQL runs very fast.
2. Ease of use: MySQL is a high performance, relatively simple database system.
3. Cost: Available free of cost.
4. Query Language Support: Understands standard based SQL.
5. Portability: Provides portability as it has been tested with a broad range of different
compiler and can work on many different platforms.
6. Data Types: Provide many data types to support different types of data.
7. Security: Offers a privilege and password system that is very flexible and secure.
8. Localization: The server can provide error messages to clients in many languages.
 9. Connectivity: Clients can connect to MySQL server using several protocols.
10. Client and Tools: Provides command line programs such as mysql dump and
mysql admin, and graphical programs such as MyQL Administrator and MySQL
Query Browser.

Advantages of MySQL:
1. Reliability and performance: MySQL is very reliable and high performance
relational database management system.
2. Availability of source: MySQL source code is available that is why now we can
recompile the source code.
3. Cross-platform support: MySQL supports more than twenty different platforms
including the major Linux distribution. Mac OS X, UNIX and Microsoft Windows.
4. Powerful uncomplicated software: The MySQL has most capabilities to handle
most corporate database applications and is very easy and fast.
