'''Mimer SQL''' is an [[SQL]]-based [[relational database management system]] <ref name="footprint">{{bokref | title = Mimer SQL Technical Description | url = http://developer.mimer.com/documentation/WhitePapers/Technical_Description/MIMTECDESC.pdf | format = [[Portable Document Format|PDF]] | author= Mimer Information Technology | chapter = Technical Overview}}</ref> from the [[Sweden|Swedish]] company ''Mimer Information Technology AB'' (formerly ''Upright Database Technology AB''). It has been developed and produced since the 1970s when it was founded at the [[Uppsala University]], [[Uppsala]], [[Sweden]].
 
The name "Mimer" is taken from the [[Norse mythology]], where [[Mímir|Mimer]] was the giant guarding the well of wisdom, also knowsknown as "[[Mímisbrunnr]]". Metaphorically this is what a database system is doing - managing data.
 
Mimer SQL offers a scalable and portable solution providing [[database server]]s for environments that spans from [[embedded system|embedded]] and [[real-time operating system]]s to [[enterprise systems]]. This includes platforms like [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[MacOS]], [[Linux]], [[Android (operating system)|Android]], [[Unix]], [[OpenVMS]], and [[VxWorks]].<ref name="platforms">{{webbref | url = http://developer.mimer.com/platforms/index.tml | title = Mimer SQL Products & Platforms | work = Mimer Developers – Platforms | date = 5 May 2017}}</ref>
