How to exit a database in Linux?

In a Linux system, entering a database can be done using command-line tools (such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.) or graphical tools.

If you are using a command-line tool to access the database, you can follow these steps to exit:

  1. Open the terminal or command line window.
  2. If it is MySQL: exit or quit.
  3. If using PostgreSQL, use \q.
  4. If it’s Oracle, type exit or quit.
  5. If it is a different database, you can look up the corresponding exit command.
  6. Press the Enter key to execute the command and exit the database.

When using a graphical interface tool to access the database, there is usually a “quit” or “close” button on the interface. Clicking this button will allow you to exit the database. You can refer to the relevant documentation or user manual for specific instructions on how to exit.

Before exiting the database, make sure to save or commit any operations made to the database to ensure data consistency and integrity.
