Applications which use MySQL databases include: TYPO3, Joomla, WordPress, phpBB, MyBB, Drupal and other software built on the LAMP software stack.

MySQL is also used in many high-profile, large-scale World Wide Web products, including Wikipedia, Google ( though not for searches ), Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Nokia. com, and YouTube.

MySQL is primarily an RDBMS and ships with no GUI tools to administer MySQL databases or manage data contained within the databases.

The official set of MySQL front-end tools, MySQL Workbench is actively developed by Oracle, and is freely available for use.
