MySQL implements the following features, which some other database may not:
1. Multiple storage engines, allowing one to choose the one that is most effective for each table in the application
2. Commit grouping, gathering multiple transactions from multiple connections together to increase the number of commits per second

SQL stands for structured query language which is used to store a database in relational database management systems. It was used to handle certain query they are insert, update, delete, alter and drop command. It is open source language and have strong security features than other databases.

MY SQL is a user friendly database which can work on any operating system & can download from any search engine. It's free to use & has fast usage & time consuming.

It has got several particular features, such as multiple native and custom hard drive engines to choose from, commit grouping etc. That make it one of the highly encouraged databases for developing web applications.

MySql is open source (so free), robust and fast. It is also easy to install on pretty much any operating system.

With all the tutorials you can find on the web, it is easy to learn it on your own.

It provides most of the features that a database like Oracle those.

If are building a small to medium application it will most likely suit your needs.
