All script applications such as forums or virtual stores save their info inside a database - a group of cells and tables which contains the Internet site data including items, prices, comments, etc. Each time you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary data, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and amongst the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used as it operates on a variety of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its excellent performance even with big databases. A lot of popular platforms including WordPress or Joomla™ employ MySQL databases to keep their content.
