All script applications such as forums or virtual stores save their information in a database - a collection of cells and tables containing all of the Internet site data such as items, prices, comments, and many others. Whenever you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required information, then displays it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and one of the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used simply because it can run on various platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its amazing effectiveness even with massive databases. A lot of popular platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to store their content.
