MySQL is among the most widely used database administration systems out there. A database is a group of cells with info that are structured in tables and the management system is the software which links the information to a script app. For instance, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars and so forth within a database and every time a site visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that should be displayed on a specific page. MySQL is very popular due to its great functionality, simplicity and the fact that it can operate with a lot of popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic Internet sites which are developed with a script-driven application need some kind of database and some of the most widely used ones such as Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.

It takes just a couple of mouse clicks to create a brand new database and with only one more click you could back it up if you would like to have a copy before you update your site, for instance. You will be able to modify the password, delete a database or enable remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you can pick the IP addresses that'll be able to connect to the database remotely in order to ensure that unauthorized people won't be able to access your data. If you want to view the database content or change any cell or table using the CP, you should use phpMyAdmin, an efficient web-based interface.
