Could someone please help with information on a database

[RichUK]

what it is, is i work for company providing technical support for hardware mainly and software, there is a job opportunity for a 2nd line database admin (working as part of a team) mainly dealing with SQL, what i would like is for help on the following

1. what is a relational and none relational database?

2. can anyone provide any decent info/links with regards to SQL

i ask this is that it will help in my interview when applying for the job, the DBA team are prepared to take someone on with little experience with databases but experience with general second line tech support, as they have the time to train them up. (hopefully me) 😀

i would be very grateful if anyone would be able to help in anyway possible..

many thanks,

RichUK
