MySQL 5 Databases

Learn why almost every site on the internet now utilizes MySQL databases and how they operate.

The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used as it functions on a number of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its excellent efficiency even with big databases. Lots of popular platforms such as WordPress or Joomla^™ use MySQL databases to store their content.
