When you use a script-driven application for your website, any info that both you and the site users generate will be stored within a database - an accumulation of data, that's organized in cells and tables for simpler reading and writing. The latter is done through special software referred to as database management system and one of the most famous ones worldwide is MySQL. A lot of script applications are built to work with MySQL as it is easy to work with, it performs perfectly on a web server and it's also universal as it can function with widely used web programming languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python) and on several server Operating Systems (Windows, Linux, UNIX). There are literally thousands of scripts that use MySQL, including very popular ones like WordPress, Joomla™ and Moodle.

MySQL 5 Databases in Website Hosting

Setting up or changing a MySQL database is going to be really easy with any of our website hosting. That can be performed through our feature-rich Hepsia Control Panel in which you can create or remove a database, set up a backup copy with just one mouse click or take advantage of the efficient phpMyAdmin tool to change cells and tables or import a whole database if you are moving a script-driven Internet site from another hosting company. You can even enable remote access to any database in your account and choose from what IP addresses the connection shall be established, so as to ensure the security of your info. Should you decide to employ any of the script platforms which we offer you with our script installer, you will not need to do anything as our system will set up a whole new database and link it to the site automatically. If you experience any issues to control your databases, you can check our help articles and instructional videos or make contact with our tech support.
