All script apps such as forums or virtual shops save their info in a database - a set of cells and tables that contains all of the site data like items, prices, comments, and many others. Every time you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required information, then displays it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is called a database management system and among the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used simply because it works on a number of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python), not mentioning its amazing functionality even with huge databases. Numerous well-known platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ employ MySQL databases to store their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Web Hosting

The in-house built Hepsia CP that comes with our Linux cloud web hosting will permit you to control all your MySQL databases without difficulty. It takes only a few mouse clicks to set up a brand new database and with only one more click you can back it up if you want to have a copy before you update your website, for instance. You will be able to modify the password, delete a database or allow remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you could pick the IP addresses which will be able to connect to the database remotely so as to ensure that unauthorized people won't be able to access your data. If you would like to see the database content or change any cell or table from the CP, you should use phpMyAdmin, an efficient web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven apps will also be very easy as our script installer will create a database for the script you have chosen automatically.

Every semi-dedicated server we offer you features the latest version of MySQL preinstalled, to permit you to run any script app you want. If you use our 1-click installer, you can create an app with a couple of clicks and our tool will set up a new database automatically. If you prefer to set up a script personally, you’ll be able to create a MySQL database easily, picking its account information. For your convenience, we have also added quick-access buttons to create a backup or allow remote accessibility to each of your databases. More tech-savvy users could log in to the efficient phpMyAdmin instrument and modify certain cells or whole tables manually via a web interface. In the Databases section of the Hepsia website hosting CP you'll also find hourly and day-to-day stats for every single database that you have created in the account.
