All script apps like forums or virtual shops store their data in a database - a collection of cells and tables that contains all the site data including items, prices, comments, and so on. Anytime you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary info, then displays it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is called a database management system and one of the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used as it works on different platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its wonderful effectiveness even with big databases. Numerous popular platforms including Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to save their content.
