Web SQL Database

Web SQL Database was a web browser API specification for storing data in databases that can be queried using SQL variant. Introduced in 2010 and quickly deprecated in favor of Web Storage API and IndexedDB, WebSQL was removed from browsers by April 2024. The technology was only ever implemented in Blink-based browsers like Google Chrome and the new Microsoft Edge, and WebKit-based browsers like Safari.
