If you use a script-driven application for your Internet site, any information that both you and the website users create will be stored within a database - a collection of information, which is structured in cells and tables for simplier and easier reading and writing. The latter is done through special software known as database management system and one of the most widely used ones worldwide is MySQL. A wide range of script apps are created to work with MySQL as it is easy to use, it performs perfectly on a web server and it's also universal as it can function with common web programming languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java) and on various web server OS (Windows, UNIX, Linux). There are thousands of scripts which use MySQL, including extremely popular ones for instance WordPress, Moodle and Joomla™.
