All script apps like forums or web stores store their info within a database - a collection of cells and tables that contains the Internet site information such as items, prices, comments, and so forth. Each time you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required data, then shows it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and one of the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it works on a number of platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python), not mentioning its wonderful performance even with huge databases. Many well-known platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ use MySQL databases to keep their content.
