MySQL
MySQL is a multithreaded, multi-user SQL
database management system which has, according to MySQL AB,
more than 10 million installations. The basic program runs as
a server providing multiuser access to a number of databases.
Libraries for accessing MySQL databases are available in all
major programming languages with language-specific APIs. In
addition, an ODBC interface called MyODBC allows additional
programming languages that support the ODBC interface to
communicate with a MySQL database, such as ASP or ColdFusion.
The MySQL server and official libraries are mostly
implemented in ANSI C/ANSI C++.
MySQL is popular for web applications and acts as the
database component of the
-
LAMP (Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP/Perl/Python)
-
MAMP (Mac-Apache-MySQL-PHP/Perl/Python)
-
WAMP (Windows-Apache-MySQL-PHP/Perl/Python)
Its popularity for use with web application is closely tied
to the popularity of PHP, which is often combined with MySQL.
PHP and MySQL are essential components for running popular
content management systems such as WordPress and Drupal
blogging platforms. Wikipedia runs on MediaWiki software,
which can also use PHP and a MySQL database.
