All script apps such as forums or web shops keep their info inside a database - a group of cells and tables containing the site information such as items, prices, comments, and many others. Anytime you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary information, then displays it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and among the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used because it runs on various platforms (Linux, UNIX, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its excellent efficiency even with large databases. Many well-known platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ use MySQL databases to save their content.
