IBM researchers Donald Chamberlin and Raymond Boyce created SQL in the 1970s to bring to life Edgar Codd’s concept of relational data models. This new language for relational databases made accessing data possible without having to understand how or where the system physically stored it. All major database platforms have adopted SQL as a standard command interface for relational database systems. Streaming platforms and applications have also used it to abstract different kinds of back-end services for developers. Analytics and No.SQL platforms have used SQL to make querying easier for end-users.
