Database Systems

There are many DBMS (Database Management System) vendors to choose from. While all of them use SQL, none of them implement it exactly as described in the specification.

MySQL	5.0.13	restaurant-mysql.sql	employees-mysql.sql	patient-mysql.sql	MySQL	MySQL

SQL Query Tools

All relational DBMSs come with their own tools for SQL processing, from command-line to graphical query constructors. There are also several generic query processors that can connect to a variety of DBMSs. The main advantage of such tools is that they work same for all DBMSs so you don't have to learn a tool for each DBMS you use. Also, the generic tools are sometimes "better" than the DBMS-specific tools. Below is a list of such tools:
