MySQL is among the most commonly used database admin systems in existence. A database is a set of cells with data that are organized in tables and the administration system is the software which links the info to a script application. As an example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc inside a database and every single time a site visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that has to be displayed on a particular page. MySQL is very popular because of its excellent functionality, ease of use and the fact that it can function with a lot of popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera. All dynamic sites that are designed with a script-driven app need some form of database and some of the most popular ones such as Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Hosting
The in-house built Hepsia CP that comes with our Linux cloud hosting will enable you to take care of all your MySQL databases without difficulty. It takes only a couple of clicks to create a completely new database and with one more click you may back it up if you'd like to have a copy before you update your website, for instance. You shall be able to modify the password, delete a database or permit remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you could pick the IP addresses that will be able to connect to the database remotely to ensure that unauthorized people will not be able to access your information. If you want to see the database content or modify any cell or table from the Control Panel, you may use phpMyAdmin, an efficient web-based interface. Using any of our script-driven apps will also be easy as our script installer will create a database for the script you have picked automatically.
