SQL, which stands for Structured Query Language, is a domain-specific programming language designed for managing and manipulating relational databases. It provides a standardized way to interact with relational database management systems (RDBMS), allowing users to create, retrieve, update, and delete data within a database.
SQL is a powerful tool for managing and querying relational databases, and its standardized syntax makes it widely applicable across various database management systems such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and Oracle Database.
