1)Mysql an open source database which have various alternatives and majorly used in a Linux environment while SQL language is used for querying databases.

2)Structured query Language used to access, maintain store and manipulate data while mysql is a relational database management system that allows you to process data by comparing it with other data sources.

3)SQL server uses a single engine to store data while mysql uses multiple engines ,this gives mysql developers the privilege to store data on the engine of their choice based on the requirements they desire.

4)SQL allows you cancel mid-query executions while mysql does not .

5)Based on IDEs ,MySQL boasts Oracle’s Enterprise Manager, while SQL Server uses Management Studio (SSMS).

Oga, update the title, SQL SERVER not SQL, there are huge differences, SQL is a domain language specifications (which tells you how to read, edit and manipulate data, among others).

The spec is used in implementing a RDMS server such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL SERVER, etc. SQL is not actually the server.

Unrelated but which database app should someone who is interested in data science learn?

Choose between MySQL, MariaDB & PostgreSQL. Na Maria I dae use, maria is a fork of MySQL, so for 90% of the case it is similar to MySQL

I don't think the title is incorrect. There is a LOT of confusion for outsiders over SQL (as an acronym) and MySQL as a RDMBS that implements a variant of SQL.

Edit:
Then I read OPs content and see that they are comparing M$ SQL Server and MYSQL. So yes you are right to asl for the correction

Sure, if you don't wanna be limited by the number of resources you can access, this is what you should do: visit Amazon book page, search for MySQL or SQL, or SQL for data scientist.

Go through the one you like including the reviews, if you are satisfied enough, copy the title and goto: sciarium.com, create an account, search for the title you just copied and the sky is your limit.

Scarium is point based, where people share books or resources and get rewarded with point, if you don exhaust your points and you no wan contribute anything, just create a new account.

Once you are earning a decent income, you can now buy the book to show support, good luck

This is useful and very important information for everyone who works with databases. MySQL is by far the most widely used. And I would like to share with you the site https://www.devart.com/dbforge/mysql/studio/ where you will find dbForge Studio for MySQL and can expand your functions in working with databases. After integrating dbForge Studio into your workflows, you will be able to manage, modify, export and import data and do many other useful things.

MySQL is a database management software. SQL is a query language. End of story.
