MySQL is one of the most popular database admin systems out there. A database is a collection of cells with data that are arranged in tables and the control system is the piece of software which links the info to a script app. For instance, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so on within a database and every time a website visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that needs to be shown on a specific page. MySQL is quite popular due to its great functionality, simplicity of use and the fact that it can work with a lot of popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, etc. All dynamic Internet sites which are developed with a script-driven app require some form of database and some of the most popular ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Website Hosting
You shall be able to use script-driven platforms which require a MySQL database with any of the website hosting packages that we offer. You can set up a whole new database through the Hepsia website hosting CP and the amount of databases which you can have at a time depends on the package which you pick out. We also provide advanced options to handle your databases, like a one-click backup and remote accessibility. With the latter option you shall be able to employ software on your personal computer to connect to a database on our servers and manage it. For easy administration through the CP we provide the highly effective phpMyAdmin software tool, that will enable you to edit cells or tables and import or export entire databases through a web interface. If you take advantage of our 1-click script installer, our system will create a brand new database and connect it to the app you have picked out automatically, so all you'll need to do to get a script-driven website is to click on the Install button.
MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with all of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages considering the fact that we have the latest version installed on all servers - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to quickly set up or remove a database, change its password, back it up with just a single mouse click or examine the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you want to handle the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you shall have two options - either working with the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available in the Control Panel, or using an application installed on your laptop or computer given that we support remote database access. For the abovementioned option, you'll need to add your IP address from the hosting account first as an added level of security against unauthorized access to your information.
