As you will read in this article, there are several key components that make up the requirements of this certification. Please note, no two companies and no two requirements are exactly alike.

Introduction of MySQL Certification

MySQL is one of the most popular open-source databases in use today, with over 70% market share. It is used not only for databases but also for websites and mobile apps around the world. MySQL has a certification program that allows individuals on all levels to take a test that allows them to be deemed certified in MySQL. Not being fully certified (at least at the time of writing) does not preclude you from earning money by teaching or getting paid as an administrator. The MySQL Certification is concerned with administering the database environment, yet it does not deal with building a database server or administering an operating system. The Program concentrates on the skills necessary to perform typical administrative tasks required for a successful MySQL deployment. These include: installing, configuring, securing, maintaining, and upgrading the various components of a complete MySQL solution in a production environment which are also covered in our MySQL Dumps. Initial certification is based on candidates passing three (3) exams, which focus on specific topics.

If the candidate completes these exams prior to earning certification, they must retest during their first year of working in an administrative position. After they complete their first year as an administrator, they can take one (1) review exam to show that they still understand the topics covered by the initial three exams. At any time during their career as a MySQL Administrator, if a candidate feels that they need more than one (1) review exam, then he or she may request one.

MySQL is a relational database management system (RDBMS) that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Originally developed by MySQL AB (a Swedish company now owned by Oracle Corporation), MySQL is now maintained by an open-source community of contributors worldwide. The MySQL Certification focuses on the administration of MySQL server, plugins and data files. There are other certifications that cover areas such as performance, development and deployment in addition to the administration area.
