All script apps like forums or virtual shops save their info inside a database - a collection of cells and tables containing all the Internet site info such as items, prices, comments, and so on. Anytime you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the needed info, then displays it. The mid-level software which connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and one of the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it runs on several platforms (Linux, UNIX, Windows) and with a variety of scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its fantastic performance even with huge databases. A lot of famous platforms like Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to store their content.
MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting
Our shared services will enable you to host MySQL-driven Internet sites without problems as our cloud platform has the latest management system version set up. You'll be able to create, delete and control your databases without trouble through our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. If you would like to migrate a website from another website hosting provider, you may use the phpMyAdmin tool which you could access via Hepsia, or you can connect remotely once you have permitted this feature for your IP address. In the same way you can also change specific cells or tables within any of your databases. Creating a backup is just as painless and takes just a click on the Backup button for a certain database. This function will permit you to keep a copy of an Internet site on your PC or to export the content of a particular database, edit it on your end using appropriate software, and then import it back.
MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting given that we have the latest version installed on all servers - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to easily set up or erase a database, change its password, back it up with one click or check out the hourly and daily access statistics for it. If you would like to manage the content of a database directly, not by using a script, you shall have two options - either working with the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, that's available in the Control Panel, or using an app installed on your laptop or computer since we support remote database access. For the latter option, you'll need to include your IP address from the web hosting account first as an additional level of protection against unauthorized access to your data.
