All script apps like forums or virtual stores save their information within a database - a collection of cells and tables which contains all of the site data like items, prices, comments, and so forth. Whenever you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary information, then shows it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and among the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used as it operates on several platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with a range of scripting languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python), not mentioning its wonderful efficiency even with large databases. Numerous widely used platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ employ MySQL databases to store their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting

Our Linux shared packages will permit you to host MySQL-driven sites without any issue as our cloud platform has the latest management system version installed. You will be able to create, remove and manage your databases effortlessly through our custom-built Hepsia CP. If you wish to migrate a website from another web hosting provider, you can use the phpMyAdmin tool which you could access from Hepsia, or you can connect remotely after you have permitted this function for your IP address. In the same way you can also modify certain cells or tables inside any of your databases. Generating a backup is also painless and takes simply a mouse click on the Backup button for a specific database. This function will enable you to keep a copy of an Internet site on your PC or to export the content of a given database, change it on your end using appropriate software, and then import it back.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our semi-dedicated packages due to the fact that we have the most up-to-date version set up on all machines - MySQL 5. Through our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to quickly set up or remove a database, modify its password, back it up with one mouse click or examine the hourly and daily access statistics for it. If you'd like to handle the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you will have 2 options - either employing the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available inside the Control Panel, or using an application set up on your personal computer considering the fact that we support remote database access. For the latter option, you will have to include your IP address via the web hosting account first as an extra level of safety against unauthorized access to your data.
