MySQL is one of the most commonly used database control systems on the market. A database is a set of cells with data which are arranged in tables and the control system is the software that links the info to a script application. As an illustration, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc in a database and every time a website visitor opens a given thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which ought to be shown on a particular page. MySQL is quite popular due to its excellent performance, ease of use and the fact that it can work with a lot of popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, and so forth. All dynamic websites which are developed with a script-driven app require some kind of database and some of the most popular ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.
