All script applications such as forums or online shops save their data within a database - a collection of cells and tables which contains the Internet site data including items, prices, comments, and so forth. Every time you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary information, then shows it. The intermediary software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used because it runs on different platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its fantastic functionality even with massive databases. Lots of famous platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ use MySQL databases to save their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Web Hosting

The in-house built Hepsia CP offered with our cloud web hosting will allow you to manage all your MySQL databases easily. It takes only a few clicks to set up a new database and with one more click you could back it up if you'd like to have a copy before you update your Internet site, for example. You will be able to change the password, remove a database or enable remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you could choose the IP addresses that will be able to connect to the database remotely so as to ensure that unauthorized people will not be able to access your info. If you'd like to view the database content or change any cell or table through the Control Panel, you should use phpMyAdmin, an effective web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven applications will also be super easy as our script installer will create a database for the script that you have chosen automatically.
