- Before we start, I want to make one important distinction. We'll be talking about databases in general, not any particular database management system or DBMS. A DBMS is the software, like SQL Server, MySQL or Access, we use to interact with the database. In this course, I'll be talking about databases in general and about the concepts that make relational databases work. You don't need any special software to follow along with the course, and you don't even need a database of your own. Later on, I'll show examples of working with a database, but I don't expect that you follow along with me.
