All script apps such as forums or e-stores store their info inside a database - a collection of cells and tables containing the website info like items, prices, comments, and so on. Anytime you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary data, then shows it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used because it can run on different platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python), not mentioning its excellent performance even with huge databases. Lots of well-known platforms such as Joomla or WordPress work with MySQL databases to keep their content.
MySQL 5 Databases in Hosting
Our Linux hosting packages will allow you to host MySQL-driven websites without any issue as our cloud platform has the latest management system version set up. You shall be able to set up, remove and manage your databases easily through our custom-made Hepsia CP. If you'd like to migrate a website from another web hosting company, you can use the phpMyAdmin tool which you could access from Hepsia, or you can connect remotely after you have permitted this function for your IP address. In the same way you can even modify specific cells or tables in any of your databases. Setting up a backup is equally simple and takes just a mouse click on the Backup button for a certain database. This function allows you to keep a copy of a site on your computer or to export the content of a given database, change it on your end using appropriate software, and then import it back.
