What is Microsoft SQL Server?

SQL (pronounced "see-kwel") stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is used to communicate with databases, and the core of any "flavor" of SQL is ANSI (American National Standards Institute) SQL, the standard language for relational database management systems. The ANSI standard SQL commands such as "Select", "Insert", "Update", "Delete", "Create", and "Drop" can be used to accomplish almost everything that one needs to do with a database. Microsoft SQL Server is Microsoft's flavor of a SQL database management system (DBMS) with its own additional proprietary extensions that are usually used only on Microsoft systems.
