MySQL is an open-source relational database management system that stores data in tables and queries it with SQL.
MySQL began at Sweden's TcX from the need for a fast, flexible relational database for web applications. Michael Widenius, David Axmark, and Allan Larsson released MySQL in 1995; development later moved through MySQL AB, Sun Microsystems, and Oracle.
Tables hold structured facts, keys connect their rows, and SQL expresses queries or changes. The database server enforces access, transactions, and durable storage.
