    :confused: SQL is the Language and MySQL is a application that uses SQL.

    Mysql is the best, it's also the most popular open-source database management system. In addition to having an SQL interpreter, MySQL also has a database manager component, GUI database viewers, session monitoring tools, etc.

    Mysql is used both for Linux and Windows based server. SQL is used only for the servers located on the Windows platform.

    SQL is used to manipulate database or to create a database. It's actually a common language. MySQL is an actual computer application. You must need to download or collect it and install it.

    MySQL is one of the most popular open source database management system. MySQL has an SQL interpreter.

    MySQL can be used as the back engine database for several kinds of applications and it's one of the best choice for many web programmers for web-base application.
