MySQL 5 Databases
Why does almost every single web site nowadays use MySQL databases? How do the aforementioned function?
If you use a script-driven application for your website, any information that both you and the website users produce shall be stored within a database - a collection of info, which is arranged in cells and tables for simplier and easier reading and writing. The latter is carried out by using special software known as database management system and one of the most well-known ones worldwide is MySQL. A large amount of script apps are designed to work with MySQL since it is easy to use, it performs really well on a hosting server and it's universal as it can work with common web programming languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python) and on several server Operating Systems (Windows, Linux, UNIX). There are literally thousands of scripts that use MySQL, including really popular ones for instance Moodle, Joomla™ and WordPress.
