MySQL is one of the most widespread database administration systems on the market. A database is a set of cells with data that are arranged in tables and the control system is the software which links the info to a script application. For example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc in a database and each time a visitor opens a given thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which needs to be displayed on a specific page. MySQL is very popular because of its terrific efficiency, simplicity and the fact that it can function with a lot of popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, etc. All dynamic websites that are built with a script-driven application need some type of database and a lot of the most widely used ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting will enable you to host MySQL-driven sites without problems as our cloud platform has the latest management system version installed. You'll be able to set up, remove and manage your databases easily through our custom Hepsia CP. If you want to migrate an Internet site from another web hosting provider, you should use the phpMyAdmin tool which you can access via Hepsia, or you can connect remotely right after you've enabled this function for your IP address. In the same way you can also modify specific cells or tables within any of your databases. Setting up a backup is also simple and takes simply a click on the Backup button for a specific database. This function will allow you to keep a copy of a site on your PC or to export the content of a certain database, edit it on your end using some software, and then import it back.
