MySQL is one of the most commonly used database admin systems available. A database is a group of cells with info which are organized in tables and the control system is the software which links the data to a script app. For instance, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so on in a database and each time a site visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that ought to be shown on a particular page. MySQL is quite popular because of its excellent functionality, simplicity of use and the fact that it can work with numerous popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, and so forth. All dynamic web sites that are designed with a script-driven application require some kind of database and a lot of the most widely used ones like Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.
