When you use a script-driven application for your site, any data which both you and the website users generate will be stored in a database - an accumulation of information, which is organized in cells and tables for simpler reading and writing. The latter is accomplished by using special software referred to as database management system and one of the most widely used ones world-wide is MySQL. A number of script apps are designed to work with MySQL because it is easy to work with, it functions very well on a website hosting server and it's also universal as it can perform with well-known web programming languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python) and on various hosting server Operating Systems (Linux, UNIX, Windows). There are thousands of scripts that use MySQL, including popular ones like WordPress, Joomla™ and Moodle.
MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting
Creating or editing a MySQL database shall be easy with each of our shared plans. This can be carried out through our feature-rich Hepsia CP in which you can set up or remove a database, create a backup with a single mouse click or take advantage of the highly effective phpMyAdmin software tool in order to modify cells and tables or import a whole database if you are moving a script-driven website from another web hosting provider. You can even enable remote access to any database within your account and choose from what IP addresses the connection will be established, so that you can ensure the protection of your data. If you decide to employ any of the script platforms that we provide with our script installer, you'll not have to do anything simply because our system will create a whole new database and link it to the website automatically. If you encounter any difficulties to control your databases, you should check our help articles and video tutorials or make contact with our tech support team.
