All script apps including forums or web stores store their data inside a database - a set of cells and tables containing all of the site information like items, prices, comments, and so forth. When you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified info, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used because it operates on a number of platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python), not mentioning its fantastic efficiency even with huge databases. Lots of popular platforms such as Joomla™ or WordPress work with MySQL databases to keep their content.
