Why learn MySQL?

MySQL provides an implementation of a SQL database very well suited for small to medium web pages. The database is free and open-source with a commercial license available (MySQL is now owned by Oracle after they bought Sun). Common applications for MySQL include PHP and Java-based web applications that require a DB storage backend, e.g. Dokuwiki, Joomla, XWiki, etc. Many applications that use MySQL are geared towards the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP).

MySQL DBA skills are highly sought after in the marketplace. Prospects are bright for candidates with knowledge of Database. A survey of IT managers conducted by Information Week in December 2000 showed that the top two database management execution issues faced by companies are: ease of administration and availability of qualified administrators. So, there is a huge demand for database managers and administrators in the industry. So, it’s worth learning MySQL, if you are looking for a bright career in Database management/database administration.
