All script applications such as forums or e-stores keep their info within a database - a collection of cells and tables which contains all the site data such as items, prices, comments, and so forth. Every time 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 called a database management system and among the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used simply because it operates on several platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a number of scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its excellent functionality even with massive databases. Many widely used platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to store their content.
