MySQL is one of the most widely used database administration systems on the market. A database is a group of cells with info which are arranged in tables and the administration system is the piece of software that links the info to a script app. As an example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc inside a database and every time a website visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which has to be accessible on a specific page. MySQL is extremely popular because of its excellent functionality, convenience and the fact that it can work with many popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera. All dynamic websites which are built with a script-driven application need some type of database and a lot of the most widely used ones such as Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.

MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Web Hosting

Our Linux shared web hosting services allow you to host MySQL-driven sites without any difficulty as our cloud platform has the latest management system version installed. You shall be able to set up, delete and control your databases without trouble using our custom Hepsia CP. If you want to migrate an Internet site from another website hosting provider, you should use the phpMyAdmin tool which you can access from Hepsia, or you can connect remotely right after you've permitted this function for your IP address. In the same way you may also edit certain cells or tables within any of your databases. Creating a backup is also simple and takes just a mouse click on the Backup button for a specific database. This function will permit you to keep a copy of a website on your PC or to export the content of a given database, edit it on your end using appropriate software, and then import it back.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our semi-dedicated hosting given that we have the latest version set up on all servers - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia hosting CP, you'll be able to easily create or delete a database, modify its password, back it up with one mouse click or examine the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you'd like to manage the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you'll have 2 options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that is available in the CP, or using an application set up on your PC since we support remote database access. For the aforementioned option, you'll have to include your IP address through the hosting account first as an extra level of protection against unauthorized access to your information.
