All script applications including forums or web shops save their data within a database - a collection of cells and tables that contains the site information like items, prices, comments, and so on. Whenever you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified information, then displays it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and one of the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used simply because it runs on various platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with numerous scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its excellent efficiency even with big databases. A lot of widely used platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ use MySQL databases to store their content.
