Taking the customer relationship management (CRM) platform up a notch, Zendesk Sunshine makes it possible for businesses to connect the dots to build the full picture of their customer from data anywhere. Offering much more than the old legacy CRM platform, Zendesk Sunshine takes a new and more modern approach, native to AWS, that provides the tools needed for developers and admins to create superior customer experiences.
MySQL is an SQL (Structured Query Language)-based open-source database management system. An application with many uses, it offers a variety of products, from free MySQL downloads of the most recent iteration to support packages with full service support at the enterprise level. The MySQL platform, while most often used as a web database, also supports e-commerce and data warehousing applications, and more.
