MySQL is among the most commonly used database management systems in existence. A database is a set of cells with data which are organized in tables and the control system is the piece of software that links the info to a script application. For example, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts etc inside a database and every time a website visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that has to be shown on a particular page. MySQL is extremely popular due to its superb functionality, convenience and the fact that it can work with many popular scripting languages like PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic sites that are designed with a script-driven application require some kind of database and many of the most widely used ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress work with MySQL.
