MySQL

MySQL is the world's most famous open source database server and is on par with other database servers such as Microsoft or Oracle (which have huge licence costs).

MySQL is a relational database management system that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Free-software-open source projects that require a full-featured database management system often use MySQL. Applications which use MySQL databases include: Joomla, WordPress, MyBB, phpBB and Drupal. MySQL is also used in Wikipedia and Facebook.

Benefits:

  • Open source – no licensing needed.
  • Fast data processing – consistent fast performance, high reliability and ease of use.
  • Cross platforms – MySQL can run on multiple platforms.
