All script apps including forums or virtual shops save their information inside a database - a collection of cells and tables that contains all the website information including items, prices, comments, etc. Every time you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified data, then shows it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and one of the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used because it runs on a number of platforms (Windows, Linux, UNIX) and with numerous scripting languages (PHP, Perl, Python, Java), not mentioning its great functionality even with large databases. A lot of famous platforms such as WordPress or Joomla™ employ MySQL databases to keep their content.
