Prologue
MySQL is an open source relational database management system (RDBMS) that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. It is named after co-founder Michael Widenius' daughter, My. The SQL phrase stands for Structured Query Language. MySQL monitoring tools are very important since My SQL is perhaps the most well known open source database. This software can help effectively deliver high performance standards regardless of whether a fast growing online business or an already established enterprise. Monitoring MySQL can be a rather complex task which a database administrator typically has to perform. Any technical problems herein can affect the whole business. This is because MySQL data can be very prone to errors that are hard to recover. Database administrators must constantly check status variables and analyze logged events to look for errors. On the basis of such data, the database administrators optimize server variables.

Limitations
Like other SQL databases, MySQL does not currently comply with the full SQL standard for some of the implemented functionality, including foreign key references when using some storage engines other than the 'standard' InnoDB. Triggers are currently limited to one per action / timing, i.e. maximum one after insert and one before insert on the same table. There are no triggers on views.
