About Mssql
Microsoft SQL Server was created in 1989 as a collaboration between Microsoft, Sybase, and Ashton-Tate. It was developed to provide a high-performance database management system for the growing needs of enterprise applications. Over time, Microsoft took full control of the product and continued to enhance its capabilities to support complex data management and analytics tasks.
Strengths of MSSQL include robust security features, strong integration with Microsoft products, and comprehensive support for transaction processing and analytics. Weaknesses include higher licensing costs and limited platform support compared to open-source alternatives. Competitors include Oracle Database, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and IBM Db2.
