MySQL is among the most commonly used database control systems out there. A database is a set of cells with info that are arranged in tables and the control system is the software which links the information to a script application. For example, a forum stores all posts, usernames, avatars and so on within a database and every single time a visitor opens a particular thread, the forum script connects to the database and “calls” the content that should be accessible on a specific page. MySQL is quite popular due to its superb functionality, convenience and the fact that it can operate with a lot of popular scripting languages including PHP, Python, Perl, etc. All dynamic websites that are built with a script-driven application need some form of database and a lot of the most popular ones including Joomla, Moodle, Mambo and WordPress use MySQL.
