All script apps like forums or e-stores save their information in a database - a set of cells and tables that contains all of the website info including items, prices, comments, and many others. Each time you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required data, then shows it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and amongst the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it operates on various platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a range of scripting languages (Python, PHP, Perl, Java), not mentioning its fantastic effectiveness even with big databases. Lots of well-known platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to keep their content.
