MySQL is among the most widespread database management systems available. A database is a collection of cells with info which are organized in tables and the administration system is the software that links the data to a script app. As an illustration, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars etc in a database and every single time a site visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that has to be displayed on a specific page. MySQL is quite popular because of its terrific functionality, ease of use and the fact that it can work with a lot of popular scripting languages such as PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic web sites that are built with a script-driven app require some type of database and a number of the most popular ones like Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.
