If you use a script-driven application for your website, any info which both you and the site users produce shall be stored within a database - a collection of info, that's structured in cells and tables for easier reading and writing.

A lot of script applications are built to work with MySQL as it's easy to work with, it works really well on a website hosting server and it's universal as it can function with widely used web programming languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java) and on a number of web server OS (Linux, UNIX, Windows). There are loads of scripts which use MySQL, including very popular ones such as Moodle, Joomla and WordPress.

MySQL 5 Databases in Cloud Hosting

The in-house built Hepsia CP offered with our Linux cloud hosting will allow you to control all your MySQL databases with ease. It requires just a couple of mouse clicks to set up a brand new database and with just one more click you could back it up if you would like to have a copy before you update your site, for example. You'll be able to change the password, remove a database or permit remote access to it just as easily. For the latter option you can pick the IP addresses which will be able to connect to the database remotely to ensure that unauthorized people shall not be able to access your info. If you want to see the database content or edit any cell or table from the CP, you should use phpMyAdmin, a powerful web-based interface. Using any of our script-driven applications shall also be easy as our script installer will set up a database for the script you have picked automatically.
