Database Tools and Your First DB

There are many different databases (DBs) in the world which fall into many different categories. We will be focusing on a family of DBs called Relational Databases (RDB) which work with a language called SQL. Specifically we will be working with MySQL which is a popular open source database. The tool we're going to use is MySQL Workbench.
