All script apps like forums or web stores keep their info inside a database - a set of cells and tables which contains the website data such as items, prices, comments, and so on. Anytime you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the required data, then shows it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and amongst the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it runs on a variety of platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a range of scripting languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python), not mentioning its amazing effectiveness even with massive databases. Many famous platforms like WordPress or Joomla™ employ MySQL databases to keep their content.

MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting packages will allow you to host MySQL-driven websites without any issue as our cloud platform has the latest management system version set up. You will be able to set up, delete and control your databases effortlessly via our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel. If you would like to migrate a site from another web hosting provider, you may use the phpMyAdmin tool which you may access via Hepsia, or you can connect remotely once you have permitted this feature for your IP address. In the same way you may also change specific cells or tables inside any of your databases. Generating a backup is also simple and takes simply a click on the Backup button for a particular database. This function will enable you to keep a copy of a website on your personal computer or to export the content of a given database, modify it on your end using some software, and then import it back.

MySQL 5 Databases in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You shall be able to use any script that requires MySQL with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting due to the fact that we have the most current version set up on all web servers - MySQL 5. Using our in-house built Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will be able to swiftly set up or erase a database, modify its password, back it up with one mouse click or check out the hourly and daily access stats for it. If you'd like to manage the content of a database directly, not through a script, you will have 2 options - either using the web interface of the phpMyAdmin tool, which is available inside the CP, or using an application installed on your personal computer since we support remote database access. For the latter option, you'll need to include your IP address through the hosting account first as an additional level of safety against unauthorized access to your data.
