All script applications such as forums or e-shops save their info within a database - a group of cells and tables that contains all the site info including items, prices, comments, etc. Anytime you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified info, then shows it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is called a database management system and amongst the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it works on a variety of platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python), not mentioning its amazing effectiveness even with huge databases. Lots of popular platforms including Joomla™ or WordPress work with MySQL databases to store their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Web Hosting

Our Linux cloud web hosting packages will allow you to host MySQL-driven websites without any difficulty as our cloud platform has the latest management system version set up. You'll be able to set up, erase and control your databases effortlessly through our custom Hepsia Control Panel. If you'd like to migrate a website from another hosting provider, you should use the phpMyAdmin tool that you can access from Hepsia, or you can connect remotely right after you have enabled this function for your IP address. In the same way you could also edit specific cells or tables within any of your databases. Setting up a backup is just as painless and requires simply a mouse click on the Backup button for a particular database. This feature allows you to keep a copy of an Internet site on your personal computer or to export the content of a particular database, modify it on your end using appropriate software, and then import it back.
