Database programming
If you want to learn about database design and programming you can obtain an account on our MariaDB (a MySQL open source fork) database server. Get in touch with us (e-mail to support@ee.ethz.ch) and let us know what your plans are. The URI of our database server is remi.ee.ethz.ch where MariaDB runs on the default TCP port 3306. Besides the basic MariaDB SQL service, we provide a phpMyAdmin WebUI for database queries and management. MariaDB Website MariaDB is a true multi-user, multi-threaded (mostly) MySQL-compatible SQL database server. ANSI-SQL for relational databases is the most popular database language in the world. MariaDB is a client/ server implementation that consists of the server daemon mysqld and many different client programs and libraries.
We also offer MongoDB, a NoSQL (nonrelational) JSON-based database especially suitable with software written in JavaScript. The service is reachable on mongodb01.ee.ethz.ch, on tcp/27017.
Note: All database services are accessible from the internal ETHZ networks only. The only exception is the phpMyAdmin web interface, which can be used globally after user authentication.
