All script applications including forums or e-stores store their data in a database - a set of cells and tables containing all of the Internet site data like items, prices, comments, and so forth. Every time you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required data, then displays it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and among the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used because it can run on different platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its excellent performance even with massive databases. A lot of famous platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to save their content.
