All script applications like forums or virtual stores keep their data within a database - a set of cells and tables which contains all the site information such as items, prices, comments, and so on. Every time you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required information, then displays it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and one of the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it runs on various platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its amazing functionality even with massive databases. Numerous widely used platforms including WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to keep their content.
