MySQL is one of the most popular database administration systems available. A database is a group of cells with information which are arranged in tables and the administration system is the piece of software which links the information to a script app. For instance, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc in a database and every single time a site visitor opens a given thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that needs to be shown on a certain page. MySQL is quite popular due to its great functionality, convenience and the fact that it can operate with numerous popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic sites that are developed with a script-driven application require some type of database and a number of the most popular ones including Joomla^™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.

MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting

The in-house built Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our Linux shared hosting will enable you to control all your MySQL databases effortlessly. It requires just a couple of mouse clicks to set up a completely new database and with one more click you could back it up if you want to have a copy before you update your site, for instance. You shall be able to change the password, delete a database or permit remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you could choose the IP addresses that'll be able to connect to the database remotely to make sure that unauthorized people won't be able to access your data. If you'd like to view the database content or change any cell or table through the CP, you may use phpMyAdmin, an excellent web-based interface. Using any of our script-driven applications shall also be super easy as our script installer will create a database for the script which you have picked out automatically.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You will be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our semi-dedicated hosting since we have the newest version installed on all web servers - MySQL 5. Via our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to quickly create or erase a database, modify its password, back it up with just a single click or check out the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you want to handle the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you'll have 2 options - either employing the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that is available inside the CP, or using an application set up on your PC given that we support remote database access. For the abovementioned option, you will need to add your IP address via the web hosting account first as an additional level of protection against unauthorized access to your information.
