All script apps like forums or e-stores store their data inside a database - a collection of cells and tables containing the site data including items, prices, comments, etc. Every time you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary info, then displays it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is called a database management system and among the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used as it can run on a number of platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (Python, PHP, Perl, Java), not mentioning its fantastic efficiency even with large databases. Numerous widely used platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to store their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Hosting

Our Linux hosting will allow you to host MySQL-driven websites without any difficulty as our cloud platform has the latest management system version set up. You'll be able to set up, erase and control your databases easily via our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. If you wish to migrate an Internet site from another web hosting provider, you should use the phpMyAdmin tool which you may access through Hepsia, or you can connect remotely once you have enabled this function for your IP address. In the same way you can even change certain cells or tables in any of your databases. Creating a backup is just as simple and takes only a click on the Backup button for a particular database. This feature will allow you to keep a copy of a website on your PC or to export the content of a particular database, change it on your end using appropriate software, and then import it back.
