SQL is short for Structured Query Language, and MySQL is a database management system, like SQL Server 2005, Oracle.

An example would be other programming languages like BASIC and QBASIC where BASIC is the generic term for the BASIC programming language and QBASIC is Microsoft's version (quick BASIC) and TURBO BASIC was Borlands version.

oracle supports the user defined datatypes,where as mysql not support all these types of datatypes, like user defined , and cursors like these stuff;;
