All script apps such as forums or web stores keep their data in a database - a set of cells and tables which contains all of the site info like items, prices, comments, and many others. Whenever you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required info, then displays it. The mid-level software which 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 frequently used as it operates on different platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its wonderful efficiency even with massive databases. A lot of well-known platforms including Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to save their content.
