All script apps such as forums or web stores store their info inside a database - a set of cells and tables that contains all the site information including items, prices, comments, and many others. Every time 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 simply because it works on a number of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a variety of scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its great performance even with massive databases. A lot of popular platforms such as Joomla™ or WordPress use MySQL databases to keep their content.
