MySQL is one of the most widespread database admin systems in existence. A database is a set of cells with information that are organized in tables and the administration system is the piece of software that links the info to a script application. As an illustration, a forum stores all usernames, avatars, posts and so forth in a database and every time a site visitor opens a specific thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content which needs to be displayed on a certain page. MySQL is quite popular because of its excellent performance, ease of use and the fact that it can work with lots of popular scripting languages such as PHP, Python, Perl, and so on. All dynamic sites which are built with a script-driven application require some type of database and a lot of the most widely used ones including Joomla™, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress employ MySQL.
