MySQL is among the most commonly used database admin systems out there. A database is a group of cells with information that are arranged in tables and the management system is the piece of software which links the info to a script app. As an illustration, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so forth in a database and every time a website visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that should be shown on a specific page. MySQL is extremely popular due to its great functionality, convenience and the fact that it can work with numerous popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, and so forth. All dynamic web sites which are built with a script-driven application require some type of database and some of the most widely used ones such as Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.

MySQL 5 Databases in Hosting

You shall be able to use script-driven platforms which require a MySQL database with any of the Linux hosting that we provide. You can create a new database via the Hepsia website hosting CP and the amount of databases which you can have at the same time will depend on the package which you opt for. We also offer you advanced options to control your databases, like a one-click backup and remote accessibility. With the latter option you'll be able to use software on your personal computer to connect to a database on our website hosting servers and manage it. For simple administration from the Control Panel we offer the efficient phpMyAdmin tool, that will allow you to modify tables or cells and import or export entire databases through a web interface. If you employ our 1-click script installer, our system will create a whole new database and link it to the application you have chosen automatically, so all you'll need to do to get a script-driven website will be to click on the Install button.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with each of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting since we have the most up-to-date version set up on all web servers - MySQL 5. Through our in-house built Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to easily set up or delete a database, change its password, back it up with a single mouse click or check out the hourly and daily access statistics for it. If you'd like to manage the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you'll have 2 options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that is available in the Control Panel, or using an app set up on your PC considering the fact that we support remote database access. For the aforementioned option, you will have to add your IP address via the web hosting account first as an additional level of protection against unauthorized access to your info.
