If you use a script-driven app for your Internet site, any info which both you and the site users create shall be stored inside a database - an accumulation of data, which is structured in cells and tables for simpler reading and writing. The latter is done through special software referred to as database management system and one of the most well-known ones globally is MySQL. A lot of script apps are built to work with MySQL because it is simple to use, it works exceptionally well on a website hosting server and it's universal as it can work with well-known web programming languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python) and on a number of hosting server OS (UNIX, Linux, Windows). There are thousands of scripts which use MySQL, including popular ones such as Moodle, Joomla™ and WordPress.
