MySQL
SQL (Structured Query Language) is a standardized programming language used for managing and manipulating relational databases.
MySQL, on the other hand, is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) that uses SQL as its query language. While SQL provides the syntax and commands for interacting with databases,
MySQL is a specific implementation that manages the storage, retrieval, and organization of data. Essentially, SQL is the language, and
MySQL is a software that employs that language to handle database operations.
