All script applications including forums or virtual stores keep their information in a database - a group of cells and tables that contains all of the Internet site data including items, prices, comments, and so forth. Whenever you open a particular page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the necessary data, then shows it. The intermediary software that connects the script and the database is called a database management system and among the most famous ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used as it runs on several platforms (Linux, Windows, UNIX) and with a range of scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its fantastic efficiency even with large databases. Numerous popular platforms such as Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to store their content.
