What is MySQL?

MySQL is a relational database management system that stores structured data and queries it using SQL. This profile connects the concept to KBY's practical engineering guidance.

It provides transactional storage, indexes, replication and access control through multiple deployment models and storage engines. Schema design, query plans, backups, consistency and operational topology determine reliability more than the SQL interface alone.
