A relational database is also
known as a relational database management system (RDBMS). RDBMS is a type of database
management system (DBMS), but focuses on the relational model just discussed.
When you install the database server with YaST, you can create the system of database
tables where the data will be stored and organized in a way that information can be
managed efficiently. If data is managed this way, it is quick to retrieve and easier to
manage, mine, and control.
Implementing MySQL
MySQL is quite possibly the most popular Open Source relational database server
available. Many Internet websites use MySQL as the backend database system for storing
data for online shopping. While it doesn??™t quite yet have as many features as some
commercial database server packages, it is best known for its simplicity and quick data
access speeds.
This section describes how to install and configure the MySQL database server on your
openSUSE system. Following that, a short example is shown on how to create a test database
and tables for an application.
