MySQL 5 Databases
Discover why virtually every web site on the net now works by using MySQL databases and how they operate.
All script applications such as forums or web shops save their information in a database - a group of cells and tables containing all the website info such as items, prices, comments, and so forth. Each time you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary information, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and among the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it runs on a number of platforms (Windows, UNIX, Linux) and with a variety of scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its great performance even with huge databases. Numerous widely used platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to save their content.
