MySQL
MySQL is a very fast, multi-threaded, multi-user and robust SQL (Structured Query Language) database server. For Unix and OS/2 platforms, MySQL is basically free. MySQL is a client/server implementation that consists of a server daemon `mysqld' and many different client programs and libraries. SQL is a standardized language that makes it easy to store, update and access information. MySQL is fast and flexible enough to allow you to store logs and pictures in it. The main goals of MySQL are speed, robustness and ease of use. MySQL was originally developed because we needed a SQL server that could handle very large databases an order of magnitude faster than what any database vendor could offer to us on inexpensive hardware. The base upon which MySQL is built is a set of routines that have been used in a highly demanding production environment for many years. Our Review: Arguably the most popular non-Microsoft SQL server, MySQL is fast, stable, and free!!! Users of MS Fox Pro and Access will most likely already be familiar with the SQL language which is a powerful weapon in the realm of databasing. This package includes the source for both server and client programs and complete documentation is included.
