MySQL 5 Databases
Learn why nearly every web site on the net now makes use of MySQL databases and just how they work.
All script applications including forums or online stores store their info in a database - a group of cells and tables that contains all of the Internet site data like items, prices, comments, and so forth. Each time you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the needed data, then displays it. The intermediary software that connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and among the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used because it can run on a number of platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with numerous scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its excellent functionality even with large databases. A lot of widely used platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to store their content.
