All script applications such as forums or web stores store their data within a database - a group of cells and tables that contains the website data such as items, prices, comments, and many others. Each time you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified information, then shows it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and one of the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used simply because it can run on a number of platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Java, Python, Perl), not mentioning its excellent performance even with big databases. A lot of famous platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to save their content.
