MySQL is among the most commonly used database administration systems out there. A database is a collection of cells with data that are organized in tables and the administration system is the software which links the data to a script app. As an example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so forth inside a database and every time a website visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which has to be displayed on a certain page. MySQL is quite popular because of its terrific performance, convenience and the fact that it can work with a lot of popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic Internet sites that are developed with a script-driven app need some form of database and some of the most popular ones such as Joomla, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.
