All script applications such as forums or e-shops store their data within a database - a group of cells and tables that contains all the website info like items, prices, comments, etc. Whenever you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the needed info, then shows it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used because it can run on a variety of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its amazing effectiveness even with massive databases. A lot of well-known platforms including WordPress or Joomla™ employ MySQL databases to store their content.
