All script applications including forums or web shops save their info inside a database - a set of cells and tables containing all the website information including items, prices, comments, etc. Whenever you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the needed data, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and one of the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used because it works on a number of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a variety of scripting languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python), not mentioning its great efficiency even with massive databases. Numerous well-known platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to save their content.
