MySQL 5 Databases
Learn what relational databases are and if using MySQL databases can be beneficial for your websites and apps.
MySQL is among the most widespread database administration systems in existence. A database is a group of cells with info that are arranged in tables and the administration system is the piece of software that links the information to a script app. For example, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars and so forth inside a database and every time a site visitor opens a given thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that needs to be accessible on a specific page. MySQL is very popular due to its terrific efficiency, simplicity and the fact that it can operate with a lot of popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic websites that are designed with a script-driven app need some type of database and a number of the most popular ones like Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Web Hosting
The in-house built Hepsia Control Panel offered with our web hosting allows you to take care of all your MySQL databases easily. It takes only a couple of mouse clicks to set up a brand new database and with just one more click you can back it up if you would like to have a copy before you update your site, for example. You shall be able to change the password, remove a database or enable remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you may pick the IP addresses that will be able to connect to the database remotely to make sure that unauthorized people shall not be able to access your information. If you'd like to see the database content or modify any cell or table via the Control Panel, you can use phpMyAdmin, a powerful web-based interface. Using any of our script-driven apps will also be easy as our script installer will create a database for the script which you have picked automatically.
