MySQL Course

MySQL is a relational database management system (RDBMS) based on SQL (Structured Query Language). MySQL is now one component of parent company MySQL AB's product line of database servers and development tools. Many Internet startups became interested in the original open source version of MySQL as an alternative to the proprietary database systems from Oracle, IBM, and Informix. MySQL is currently available under two different licensing agreements: free of charge, under the GNU General Public License (GPL) open source system or through subscription to MySQL Network for business applications.
