All script apps like forums or virtual shops save their information in a database - a set of cells and tables that contains all of the website information such as items, prices, comments, etc. Whenever you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary information, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and among the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it works on a variety of platforms (Windows, UNIX, Linux) and with a variety of scripting languages (Java, Perl, Python, PHP), not mentioning its fantastic effectiveness even with large databases. A lot of famous platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to keep their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting

Creating or editing a MySQL database will be very easy with any of our Linux shared hosting packages. This can be carried out via our feature-rich Hepsia CP in which you can set up or delete a database, create a backup with a single click or take advantage of the powerful phpMyAdmin instrument in order to change cells and tables or import an entire database if you are moving a script-driven Internet site from another web hosting provider. You could also enable remote access to any database inside your account and decide from what IP addresses the connection will be established, as a way to guarantee the safety of your information. If you opt to take advantage of any of the script platforms we offer you with our script installer, you will not have to do anything simply because our system will create a whole new database and link it to the Internet site automatically. If you experience any problems to control your databases, you can examine our help articles and training videos or communicate with our tech support team.
