If you use a script-driven app for your Internet site, any information that both you and the site users generate shall be stored within a database - an accumulation of info, that is arranged in cells and tables for simplier and easier reading and writing. The latter is accomplished by using special software known as database management system and one of the most popular ones globally is MySQL. A large amount of script applications are built to work with MySQL because it is easy to work with, it works very well on a website hosting server and it's universal as it can function with widely used web programming languages (Java, Perl, Python, PHP) and on various server Operating Systems (Linux, UNIX, Windows). There are literally thousands of scripts which use MySQL, including very popular ones such as WordPress, Joomla™ and Moodle.
