Tekniikka ja liiketoiminta

We will use a DBMS environment for practical training (probably MySQL / MariaDB), which needs installation on the personal computer. You can install the software (e.g. Uwamp) also on a USB memory stick (to allow the mobility between the school and home), and/or on the personal profile in TUAS domain (usable in computer class rooms).
Highly likely, the environment for using DBMS is some LAMP stack with graphical UI like UwAmp, but you can use similar like XAMPP.
In addition to DBMS environment, we will use MongoDB or similar online tool for practicing document databases.
