MySQL is among the most popular database admin systems in existence. A database is a group of cells with info that are organized in tables and the management system is the piece of software which links the information to a script application. For example, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars and so on inside a database and every time a website visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which has to be shown on a particular page. MySQL is quite popular because of its terrific efficiency, simplicity and the fact that it can function with a lot of popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic Internet sites that are built with a script-driven application require some form of database and some of the most widely used ones like Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Web Hosting
You'll be able to use script-driven platforms which require a MySQL database with each of the Linux web hosting service we provide. You can set up a new database via the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and the total number of databases you can have at one time will depend on the package that you opt for. We also provide you with advanced options to control your databases, like a one-click backup and remote accessibility. With the latter option you shall be able to employ software on your personal computer to connect to a database on our web hosting servers and manage it. For easy management through the Control Panel we provide you with the efficient phpMyAdmin software tool, that will enable you to change tables or cells and import or export whole databases through a web interface. If you take advantage of our 1-click script installer, our system shall create a brand new database and link it to the application you have picked automatically, so all you'll have to do to get a script-driven Internet site will be to click on the Install button.
MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Servers
You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting service due to the fact that we have the newest version set up on all machines - MySQL 5. Through our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to quickly set up or remove a database, change its password, back it up with just a single click or check out the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you want to manage the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you shall have 2 options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available inside the CP, or using an app installed on your personal computer since we support remote database access. For the aforementioned option, you'll need to include your IP address from the web hosting account first as an added level of safety against unauthorized access to your data.
