Learn moreMySQL is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) that uses Structured Query Language (SQL) for managing and querying data. It is widely used for its speed, reliability, and flexibility in handling large-scale database applications. MySQL is commonly employed in web development and is a key component of the popular LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl/Python).
