  Excuse me for asking a so simple question,

If you are trying to determine whether MySQL is a relational database, the answer is yes.


Ehm... the answer is "no".

i have no clue about DBMS, but ...

MySQL is a relational database management system.
A relational database stores data in separate tables rather than putting
all the data in one big storeroom.[...]


or take a look at


addison-wesley / pearson education
"fundamentals of database systems" third edition
Ramez Elmasry, Shamkant Navathe

eg.
in the german edition:
chapter 2.5 Klassifikation von DBMS  p.58ff



It's getting better, that's for sure.
