MySQL Development
MySQL is a relational database management system (RDBMS). It acts as a database server that provides access for multiple users to multiple databases simultaneously. Previously owned by Sun microsystems, it is now an Oracle product as Sun itself was acquired by Oracle.
Many GUI tools are available for MySQL administration. MySQL is commonly accepted as the perfect database partner for PHP. Hence it has had great progress in popularity along with PHP.
