All script applications including forums or virtual stores save their information inside a database - a group of cells and tables that contains all the Internet site info like items, prices, comments, and so forth. Anytime you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified info, then shows it. The intermediary software that connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and amongst the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it can run on different platforms (Linux, UNIX, Windows) and with numerous scripting languages (Java, Perl, Python, PHP), not mentioning its amazing effectiveness even with massive databases. Many well-known platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ use MySQL databases to keep their content.
