Hi, I am self learning MySQL, I am a bit confuse with the terminology, can someone explain a little bit what is schema and model? And how they are usually used? Thanks.
MySQL is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) that is used to store and manage large amounts of data. It is one of the most popular database systems and is commonly used in web applications.
A schema in MySQL is a logical collection of database objects, such as tables, views, and stored procedures. It defines the structure and organization of the data stored in a database.
To create a schema in MySQL, you can use the "CREATE SCHEMA" command followed by the name of the schema. For example: CREATE SCHEMA mydatabase;
A database model in MySQL is a visual representation of the database structure, including the tables, columns, and relationships between them. It helps to plan and design a database before it is created.
There are many resources available to learn more about MySQL schemas and models, including online tutorials, books, and documentation from MySQL. You can also practice creating and managing schemas and models on your own using a MySQL database server.
