MySQL

   Also found in: Acronyms, Wikipedia 0.21 sec.

(MY SQL) Pronounced "my S-Q-L" or "my-see-quill," it is a very popular open source, relational DBMS from MySQL AB, Uppsala, Sweden (www.mysql.com) that runs under various versions of Unix and Windows and Mac. Widely used for Web applications and embedded applications, MySQL is available for free from MySQL AB under the GNU license as well as for a fee without restrictions. More than 100 million copies of the software have been downloaded worldwide.

The MySQL programming interface (API) is a superset of the C API for mSQL, which was developed by David Hughes in 1994. Supported by many scripting languages, such as Perl, Python and TCL, MySQL includes a C/C++ interface. ODBC and JDBC drivers are also available. In January 2008, Sun announced it was acquiring MySQL AB. See mSQL.
