MySQL Databas: ............................ MySQL is a fast, easy-to-use RDBMS being used for many small and big businesses. MySQL is developed, marketed, and supported by MySQL AB, which is a Swedish company. MySQL is becoming so popular because of many good reasons: • MySQL is released under an open-source license. So you have nothing to pay to use it. • MySQL is a very powerful program in its own right. It handles a large subset of the functionality of the most expensive and powerful database packages. • MySQL uses a standard form of the well-known SQL data language. • MySQL works on many operating systems and with many languages including PHP, PERL, C, C++, JAVA, etc. • MySQL works very quickly and works well even with large data sets. • MySQL is very friendly to PHP, the most appreciated language for web development. • MySQL supports large databases, up to 50 million rows or more in a table. The default file size limit for a table is 4GB, but you can increase this (if your operating system can handle it) to a theoretical limit of 8 million terabytes (TB). • MySQL is customizable. The open-source GPL license allows programmers to modify the MySQL software to fit their own specific environments.
