MySQL is among the most commonly used database control systems out there. A database is a set of cells with info which are arranged in tables and the management system is the piece of software that links the info to a script app. For example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so on within a database and each time a site visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that has to be shown on a particular page. MySQL is extremely popular because of its excellent functionality, simplicity and the fact that it can work with numerous popular scripting languages such as PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic web sites which are developed with a script-driven app need some form of database and some of the most widely used ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Hosting
The in-house built Hepsia Control Panel included with our Linux cloud hosting will permit you to control all your MySQL databases easily. It takes just a few clicks to create a brand new database and with one more click you may back it up if you want to have a copy before you update your website, for instance. You'll be able to modify the password, erase a database or enable remote access to it just as fast. For the latter option you can pick the IP addresses that'll be able to connect to the database remotely to ensure that unauthorized people won't be able to access your data. If you'd like to view the database content or change any cell or table via the Control Panel, you should use phpMyAdmin, a powerful web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven applications shall also be very easy as our script installer will create a database for the script that you have selected automatically.
