MySQL is one of the most widespread database management systems available. A database is a collection of cells with data that are organized in tables and the administration system is the piece of software that links the info to a script application. For instance, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so forth in a database and each time a visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which has to be accessible on a specific page. MySQL is extremely popular because of its great performance, ease of use and the fact that it can function with lots of popular scripting languages such as PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera. All dynamic websites that are built with a script-driven application require some type of database and a lot of the most widely used ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.

The in-house built Hepsia CP offered with our cloud hosting service allows you to control all your MySQL databases easily. It requires only a couple of clicks to set up a completely new database and with only one more click you could back it up if you'd like to have a copy before you update your web site, for example. You will be able to change the password, remove a database or permit remote access to it just as fast. For the latter option you'll be able to opt for the IP addresses that will be able to connect to the database remotely to make sure that unauthorized people will not be able to access your info. If you wish to see the database content or change any cell or table via the CP, you should use phpMyAdmin, a powerful web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven apps shall also be super easy as our script installer will set up a database for the script which you have picked automatically.
