A short on MySQL| Category | | | Summary | | MySQL is an open source server database program that runs on many platforms. It is used mainly with server-side languages such as PHP to provide information that the script needs. |
| | Body | For example, a PHP script will ask for a user name and password, then forward the user's response onto the MySQL database. The database will then check the user's credentials and then tell the script whether they are correct.
MySQL supports standard SQL (server query language) and many other database access commands, allowing mySQL to be used with a variety of other software. It has support for many different data mediums and ways to store data, for more secure applications or ones that require more speed and performance. MySQL also has built in rollover support and can join a network of servers, so if one goes down, the data can remain up.
MySQL is the most popular open-source database. Since it's open source, this enables many developers around the globe to fix bugs and add new features. The database is free to download, but a pro package with pre-configured options and tech support is available to corporations. For more information, please go to www.mysql.com. |
