Your photo is data, and your phone’s gallery is the database. Think of taking a selfie: you push a button and capture an image of yourself. Now, let’s take a closer look at each term: DatabaseĪ database is simply a collection of structured data.

RDBMS is a software or service used to create and manage databases based on a relational model. In regard to the general definition, MySQL is an open source relational database management system (RDBMS) with a client-server model. US tech giant Oracle in 2010 acquired Sun Microsystems itself, and MySQL has been practically owned by Oracle since. The US tech company Sun Microsystems then took full ownership when they bought MySQL AB in 2008.

A Swedish company called MySQL AB originally developed MySQL in 1994. Sometimes people call it “my sequel” or other names, but at least you know the official pronunciation. Please accept as answer and upvote if the above information is helpful for the benefit of the community.First things first, you have to know how to pronounce it: MY-ES-KYOO-EL’. You can go to the next section on how to configure the firewall.įor more information about using SQL Server 2017 Linux virtual machines, see Overview of SQL Server 2017 virtual machines on Azure. Note: If you selected the inbound port MS SQL (1433) in the settings during provisioning, these changes have been already made for you.

The rule allows traffic on the port on which SQL Server listens (default of 1433). The above image is referenced for managed SQL DB though, assuming it will be same for the SQL server instance on azure VM.įirstly, if you need to remotely connect to SQL Server on the Azure VM, you must configure an inbound rule on the network security group. As per this article, I see Navicat console, kind of establishes a connection with SQL instance somewhat similar to SQL management studio. I see Navicat is a Graphical database management and development software and you intend to allow remote access to the SQL instance on azure Vm to facilitate administrative tasks.
