If you use a script-driven app for your website, any information that both you and the site users produce shall be stored inside a database - an accumulation of information, which is structured in cells and tables for simplier and easier reading and writing. The latter is accomplished by using special software referred to as database management system and one of the most popular ones worldwide is MySQL. A lot of script apps are built to work with MySQL since it’s user-friendly, it functions perfectly on a website hosting server and it's universal as it can perform with widely used web programming languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python) and on a number of server Operating Systems (UNIX, Linux, Windows). There are thousands of scripts that use MySQL, including quite popular ones like WordPress, Joomla™ and Moodle.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to use any script that requires MySQL with each of our Linux semi-dedicated servers considering the fact that we have the most up-to-date version set up on all servers - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia website hosting CP, you'll be able to swiftly set up or delete a database, change its password, back it up with one click or check the hourly and daily access statistics for it. If you would like to handle the content of a database directly, not via a script, you'll have two options - either working with the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that is available in the CP, or using an app installed on your computer considering the fact that we support remote database access. For the abovementioned option, you'll need to add your IP address via the hosting account first as an extra level of protection against unauthorized access to your info.
