There are some datagrids I had quick look into:Angular UI Gridag-Grid, one more linkKendo UI GridAlso, previously I had a very small experience with MySQL.What are the differences between (a) datagrids, as given above and (b) databases like MySQL, with enduser-oriented frondend added to them?
Datagrids vs Databases - what are the differences?
database;data structures
A grid or datagrid is a kind of user interface widget used to display tabular data.A database is a software system that manages read and write operations on large amounts of structured persistent data.Here are some typical goals/features for a database that don't apply to a datagrid:Ensure transactions always complete in their entirety, or get fully rolled back, even in the event of a software crash or a power failure.A declarative query language to efficiently read the data or compute statistics about the data.Processing millions of updates to the data from dozens of external sources every day.Here are some typical goals/features for a datagrid which don't apply to a database:Efficiently scroll through thousands of rows by only rendering the subset that are currently visible.Visual indication such as flashing when one of the cell's values changes.Allow rows and columns to be added, removed or rearranged on the fly.It's like asking what the difference is between a text file on your hard drive and a text editor like Notepad. They're not even close to being the same thing.
