All script apps like forums or virtual stores keep their data in a database - a group of cells and tables which contains the Internet site information including items, prices, comments, and so forth. Anytime you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary information, then displays it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and one of the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used simply because it runs on different platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its excellent effectiveness even with big databases. Many popular platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ use MySQL databases to keep their content.
