When you use a script-driven application for your site, any information which both you and the site users generate will be stored within a database - an accumulation of data, which is structured in cells and tables for simplier and easier reading and writing. The latter is carried out through special software known as database management system and one of the most widely used ones globally is MySQL. A wide range of script apps are created to work with MySQL since it is simple to use, it performs very well on a hosting server and it's also universal as it can perform with common web programming languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java) and on various web server OS (Windows, UNIX, Linux). There are literally thousands of scripts which use MySQL, including extremely popular ones like WordPress, Joomla™ and Moodle.
