MySQL is among the most commonly used database control systems available. A database is a collection of cells with info that are arranged in tables and the control system is the software which links the information to a script app. As an illustration, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars and so on inside a database and each time a visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that has to be accessible on a particular page. MySQL is quite popular because of its terrific functionality, ease of use and the fact that it can work with many popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera. All dynamic Internet sites which are built with a script-driven application require some kind of database and some of the most popular ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.
MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting
You shall be able to use script-driven platforms that require a MySQL database with each of the shared hosting plans we provide. You could set up a whole new database from your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and the amount of databases which you can have at one time will depend on the package you pick out. We also offer advanced options to manage your databases, including a one-click backup and remote access. With the latter option you'll be able to use software on your computer to connect to a database on our hosting servers and manage it. For convenient administration from the CP we provide you with the powerful phpMyAdmin tool, which will allow you to edit tables or cells and import or export whole databases using a web interface. If you employ our 1-click script installer, our system shall create a whole new database and link it to the app you have chosen automatically, so all you will have to do to get a script-driven website will be to click on the Install button.
MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Servers
You will be able to use any script that requires MySQL with each of our semi-dedicated plans given that we have the most current version set up on all machines - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to swiftly create or erase a database, change its password, back it up with just a single mouse click or check out the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you would like to handle the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you will have two options - either working with the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available in the CP, or using an app installed on your PC considering the fact that we support remote database access. For the abovementioned option, you will have to add your IP address through the hosting account first as an additional level of security against unauthorized access to your information.
