MySQL is one of the most widespread database administration systems in existence. A database is a collection of cells with information which are organized in tables and the management system is the piece of software that links the data to a script app. For example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc in a database and every single time a site visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that needs to be shown on a particular page. MySQL is extremely popular due to its superb performance, ease of use and the fact that it can work with numerous popular scripting languages such as PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic Internet sites which are built with a script-driven application require some kind of database and many of the most widely used ones like Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.
