SQL (officially pronounced /??skju???l/ like “S-Q-L” but is often pronounced /?si?kw?l/ like “Sequel”),[1] often referred to as Structured Query Language,[2][3] is a database computer language designed for managing data in relational database management systems (RDBMS), and originally based upon relational algebra. Its scope includes data query and update, schema creation and modification, and data access control. SQL was one of the first languages for Edgar F. Codd’s relational model in his influential 1970 paper, “A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks”[4] and became the most widely used language for relational databases.[2][5] ANSI SQL is a Turing complete programming language.
