Structured Query Language, also known as SQL, is a language that is used to manage data in relational database systems. Many different sellers have made significant improvements to the language, which now comes in a wide variety of flavors. Note that this tag refers specifically to the ISO/ANSI SQL standard, and not to a particular version of that standard that has been implemented.

Structured Query Language, also known as SQL, is a specialized form of computer programming that was developed specifically for the purpose of managing data that is stored in a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). Relational Data Stream Management Systems (RDSMS) and "not-only SQL" (NoSQL) databases are two examples of database architectures that can make use of SQL-like languages. The following are the three primary sublanguages that comprise SQL:

  • Data Definition Language (DDL) is a language that allows users to create and modify the structure of a database.
  • Data Manipulation Language (DML): a programming language used to perform operations such as Read, Insert, Update, and Delete on the data stored in a database;
  • Data Control Language, also known as DCL, is used to restrict who can access the information that is kept in a database.

The statements INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE, and DELETE are responsible for carrying out the four fundamental DML operations, which are abbreviated as CRUD for short: create, read, update, and delete. In addition to that, there is a newly introduced statement called "MERGE", which is capable of carrying out all three write operations (INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE).

The term "SQL server" refers to the type of database that is implemented as a client/server system, which is used for many SQL databases. During this same time period, Microsoft developed a database that goes by the name "SQL Server." Although that database uses its own dialect of SQL, any information that is specific to that database does not belong in this tag; rather, it should be included in the documentation for SQL Server.
