All script apps like forums or e-stores store their data inside a database - a set of cells and tables which contains all the Internet site data such as items, prices, comments, and many others. Anytime you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified data, then shows it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is called a database management system and amongst the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it runs on various platforms (Windows, UNIX, Linux) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its wonderful efficiency even with massive databases. Lots of popular platforms such as Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to store their content.
