If you use a script-driven application for your website, any information which both you and the website users generate shall be stored within a database - a collection of data, which is structured in cells and tables for simplier and easier reading and writing. The latter is accomplished by using special software known as database management system and one of the most famous ones world-wide is MySQL. A large amount of script apps are built to work with MySQL because it is easy to work with, it functions perfectly on a server and it is universal as it can work with famous web programming languages (Java, Perl, Python, PHP) and on numerous hosting server Operating Systems (Windows, UNIX, Linux). There are hundreds of scripts which use MySQL, including popular ones such as WordPress, Moodle and Joomla™.
