MySQL is one of the most widely used database management systems on the market. A database is a group of cells with information that are organized in tables and the management system is the piece of software that links the info to a script application. For example, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars etc within a database and each time a site visitor opens a given thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which should be accessible on a certain page. MySQL is very popular due to its terrific efficiency, simplicity and the fact that it can work with numerous popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, etc. All dynamic web sites that are developed with a script-driven application need some type of database and a lot of the most popular ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.
