All script applications including forums or online shops keep their information in a database - a collection of cells and tables which contains all the Internet site info including items, prices, comments, and many others. Anytime you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified information, then displays it. The intermediary software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used simply because it can run on a number of platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a range of scripting languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python), not mentioning its excellent efficiency even with big databases. Lots of famous platforms including WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to keep their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting

Our Linux shared hosting services allow you to host MySQL-driven sites without any difficulty as our cloud platform has the latest management system version set up. You'll be able to create, erase and manage your databases without trouble using our custom-made Hepsia CP. If you'd like to migrate a website from another website hosting company, you should use the phpMyAdmin tool which you could access from Hepsia, or you can connect remotely after you've permitted this function for your IP address. In the same way you may also edit certain cells or tables inside any of your databases. Creating a backup is equally simple and takes only a click on the Backup button for a specific database. This function allows you to keep a copy of an Internet site on your personal computer or to export the content of a given database, edit it on your end using some software, and then import it back.
