-described on this page.
+The SQL databases Semantic Conventions describes how common [Database Semantic Conventions](database-spans.md) apply to SQL databases.
+
+The following database systems (defined in the [`db.system`](./database-spans.md#notes-and-well-known-identifiers-for-dbsystem) set) are known to use SQL as their primary query language:
+
+- `cockroachdb`
+- `db2`
+- `derby`
+- `edb`
+- `firebird`
+- `h2`
+- `hsqldb`
+- `ingres`
+- `interbase`
+- `mariadb`
+- `maxdb`
+- `mssql`
+- `mssqlcompact`
+- `mysql`
+- `oracle`
+- `other_sql`
+- `pervasive`
+- `postgresql`
+- `sqlite`
+- `trino`
+
+Many other database systems support SQL and can be accessed via generic database driver such as JDBC or ODBC.
+Instrumentations applied to generic SQL drivers SHOULD adhere to SQL semantic conventions.
