All script applications including forums or virtual stores keep their information within a database - a set of cells and tables that contains all of the website data including items, prices, comments, etc. Every time you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the needed information, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it functions on a variety of platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its fantastic efficiency even with huge databases. Numerous well-known platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to keep their content.
