If you use a script-driven application for your Internet site, any info that both you and the site users produce shall be stored in a database - a collection of info, that is structured in cells and tables for simpler reading and writing. The latter is accomplished through special software referred to as database management system and one of the most popular ones world-wide is MySQL. A wide range of script apps are built to work with MySQL since it’s user-friendly, it functions very well on a web server and it is universal as it can perform with common web programming languages (Python, PHP, Perl, Java) and on several hosting server OS (Windows, UNIX, Linux). There are thousands of scripts which use MySQL, including very popular ones for example Moodle, Joomla™ and WordPress.
MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Web Hosting
Starting or editing a MySQL database will be very easy with each one of our Linux shared web hosting. This can be accomplished via our feature-rich Hepsia CP where you can create or remove a database, set up a backup with just one click or use the efficient phpMyAdmin software instrument to change cells and tables or import an entire database if you are moving a script-driven site from another service provider. You could also enable remote access to any database inside your account and select from what IP addresses the connection will be established, as a way to guarantee the safety of your information. Should you decide to employ any of the script platforms that we offer you with our script installer, you won't have to do anything as our system will create a brand new database and link it to the Internet site automatically. If you encounter any issues to manage your databases, you can check our help articles and video tutorials or get hold of our technical support.
MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with each of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting considering the fact that we have the newest version set up on all servers - MySQL 5. Through our in-house built Hepsia hosting CP, you shall be able to easily create or remove a database, modify its password, back it up with one click or check out the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you'd like to handle the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you shall have 2 options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available in the Control Panel, or using an application set up on your laptop or computer considering the fact that we support remote database access. For the aforementioned option, you will need to include your IP address via the hosting account first as an extra level of protection against unauthorized access to your information.
