Abstract
The aim of this thesis was to compare the performance of two relational database management systems PostgreSQL and MySQL. For the purpose of the study a relational database was designed and a piece of software was implemented to connect desktop application with the database system. This software shall also create entities and relations between them in desired empty schemes on servers for databases. There has also been implemented a desktop application in Java programming language, that allows browsing data stored in database and performing the tests of database performance. Tests addressed basic operations of adding, collecting, updating and deleting data. Thisthesis makes a hypothesis "PostgreSQL is more efficient for desktop application while loaded with small data, in that case 1000 of queries", that was confirmed by achieved results from tests performed.
