Could anyone tell me what is "SQL database"?

What can we do with this database? What's the advantage of it?

Please help me. I'm new to web hosting site and I don't know anything about webhosting. Just now I'm learning.

If you want to run any PHP powered CMS, Forums you probably need an SQL database. If no database is created. It won't run. But most CMS or forums installation ask you to write the database name, user name and password. To create the database in Zymic it's easy. Log in to your site manager and click MySQL Database Management and create a user. Then create the database. The database can be in any name. If you want easier to organize your SQL, make it in a name like if this database is for phpBB name it phpBB. Then assign it's privileges. It's easy right? Although I'm just 12 years old kid, but I'm very interested in networking. Hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

A SQL database is basically somewhere to store information.
