Abstract
Many database implementations are supported by application frameworks that can affect their performance. The paper presents a comparison of the performance of SQL Server, MySQL and PostgreSQL relational databases based on an application written in PHP using the Laravel framework. The time of performance for various types of queries, both simple and using column and table concatenation was evaluated. The obtained results for the same database structures differed depending on the operations performed on the databases. Looking at the entirety of the research conducted, it can be concluded that in the case of databases in which the number of records is not too large (up to 1000 records) and the technical parameters of the device on which the database is running are of low or medium class, MySQL performs very well.
