All script applications including forums or online stores store their information in a database - a set of cells and tables containing the website data including items, prices, comments, etc. Each time you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required information, then shows it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used as it runs on several platforms (Windows, UNIX, Linux) and with numerous scripting languages (PHP, Java, Perl, Python), not mentioning its fantastic functionality even with big databases. Many popular platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to save their content.
