MySQL is one of the most commonly used database admin systems available. A database is a collection of cells with data which are organized in tables and the administration system is the piece of software that links the information to a script application. As an example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so forth in a database and each time a visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which should be shown on a particular page. MySQL is quite popular because of its excellent performance, simplicity of use and the fact that it can operate with a lot of popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera. All dynamic Internet sites which are designed with a script-driven app require some form of database and a lot of the most widely used ones like Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.

It requires just a couple of mouse clicks to set up a new database and with just one more click you can back it up if you'd like to have a copy before you update your Internet site, for example. You'll be able to modify the password, erase a database or enable remote access to it just as easily.

If you wish to see the database content or edit any cell or table through the CP, you should use phpMyAdmin, an excellent web-based interface. Using any of our script-driven applications shall also be very easy as our script installer will set up a database for the script which you have chosen automatically.
