All script apps like forums or web shops save their info within a database - a collection of cells and tables which contains the website info including items, prices, comments, and so on. Anytime you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified info, then shows it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is referred to as a database management system and one of the most well-known ones is MySQL. The latter is frequently used as it operates on a variety of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a number of scripting languages (Java, PHP, Perl, Python), not mentioning its excellent performance even with large databases. Numerous famous platforms including Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to store their content.
