MySQL is among the most widely used database management systems out there. A database is a collection of cells with information which are organized in tables and the management system is the piece of software that links the information to a script app. For instance, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars etc inside a database and every time a website visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that needs to be shown on a specific page. MySQL is extremely popular because of its terrific performance, convenience and the fact that it can function with many popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, and so forth. All dynamic websites which are developed with a script-driven application require some form of database and a number of the most popular ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.

MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Hosting

The in-house built Hepsia CP offered with our Linux cloud hosting packages will allow you to take care of all your MySQL databases with ease. It requires just a few clicks to set up a brand new database and with one more click you can back it up if you want to have a copy before you update your Internet site, for example. You'll be able to modify the password, erase a database or allow remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you could opt for the IP addresses that'll be able to connect to the database remotely to make sure that unauthorized people won't be able to access your data. If you'd like to view the database content or change any cell or table using the Control Panel, you should use phpMyAdmin, a powerful web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven apps will also be very easy as our script installer will create a database for the script you have chosen automatically.
