All script apps like forums or web stores store their information in a database - a set of cells and tables that contains all of the site info including items, prices, comments, and many others. Whenever you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary data, then shows it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is called a database management system and one of the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used simply because it functions on different platforms (Linux, UNIX, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its amazing functionality even with huge databases. Lots of famous platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress work with MySQL databases to store their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our semi-dedicated services due to the fact that we have the newest version installed on all web servers - MySQL 5. Via our in-house built Hepsia hosting CP, you'll be able to quickly set up or remove a database, change its password, back it up with a single mouse click or check out the hourly and daily access statistics for it. If you'd like to handle the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you shall have 2 options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available inside the CP, or using an application set up on your computer given that we support remote database access. For the latter option, you'll have to add your IP address through the hosting account first as an additional level of security against unauthorized access to your info.
