All script apps including forums or e-shops save their info in a database - a collection of cells and tables which contains the Internet site information including items, prices, comments, and so forth. When you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required info, then shows it. The intermediary software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and one of the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it functions on several platforms (Windows, UNIX, Linux) and with a variety of scripting languages (Java, Perl, Python, PHP), not mentioning its amazing performance even with massive databases. Lots of widely used platforms such as Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to keep their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting due to the fact that we have the newest version set up on all servers - MySQL 5. Via our in-house built Hepsia hosting CP, you'll be able to easily set up or erase a database, change its password, back it up with one mouse click or check out the hourly and daily access stats for it.
