If you use a script-driven app for your website, any info which both you and the website users generate will be stored inside a database - a collection of data, which is organized in cells and tables for simpler reading and writing. The latter is carried out by employing special software known as database management system and one of the most widely used ones globally is MySQL. A lot of script applications are built to work with MySQL since it is convenient to use, it functions exceptionally well on a hosting server and it's universal as it can work with widely used web programming languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python) and on various web server OS (Windows, Linux, UNIX). There are literally thousands of scripts that use MySQL, including really popular ones for example WordPress, Moodle and Joomla.
