Commonly Asked Questions
Basically, a database is a collection of information, organized for easy managing, access, and updating. Data can be organized into tables, columns, and rows. It’s indexed in order to make the finding of relevant information easier. When new information is added, the data gets updated, expended, and deleted. Databases process workloads with the purpose of creating and updating themselves, querying their contained data while running applications against it.
MySQL is the most used Open-source Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). An RDBMS stores your data in a table format, with all the relationships within the data itself, also being stored in tables.
It’s freely available and uses Structured Query Language (SQL) - a computer language which is designed to manage, retrieve, and add data within a DBMS that uses a logical and easy-to-use syntax.
SQL is considered the most popular language when it comes to accessing, adding, and overall managing database content. Most notably, MySQL is known with quick processing, reliability, flexibility, and ease of use. It’s an essential part of most open-source PHP apps, such as WordPress, Joomla, Magento, Drupal.
One of the essential things you need to know when using MySQL is that you need to have a MySQL specialized host (like FastComet).
As a hosting service, MySQL enables you to easily deploy, monitor, provision, and scale all MySQL deployments in the cloud with an easy-to-use console for management. You can fully automate all of the sluggish database operations and focus on what matters the most - managing your website.
Currently, with the use of cPanel, the latest MySQL version on our server is 5.7.26.
The answer is yes, you can have remote MySQL access. If you need it, you’d have to use the Remote MySQL Access feature that can be found in account’s cPanel. You can find the MySQL Remote Access tool when you go to the Database section of your cPanel. The tool is really straight forward.
Database migration is a part of the package and we can transfer it at no extra cost. Note that if you are not using cPanel with your current host, we would transfer up to three sites and/or databases for free (depending on the hosting plan you select).
You are able to import one or more MySQL databases to a hosting account with us. You can also save yourself the hassle and request from our support team to transfer the databases for you.
It’s relatively easy to create a brand new database from your cPanel - a matter of just a few clicks. In case you need assistance with that, contact us and we will be glad to guide you.
In case you want to delete any of your MySQL databases or include more users, modify privileges or change your MySQL user password, the cPanel’s MySQL Database app gives you the user-friendly interface to make the whole process easy. Follow our tutorial on MySQL Databases and Users management.
You can create an unlimited amount of MySQL databases with your FastCloud hosting account, as well as assign unlimited number of users to them.
With shared hosting you can use up to 1 GB per database with the FastCloud Extra package. With FastCloud Plus you can use 750 MB per database and with FastCloud you can use up to 350 MB.
Your website database stores all the content of your site. This includes your blog posts, post revisions, pages, comments, as well as custom post types such as links, form entries, and portfolio items. It also stores your site, themes, and plugins settings. A large database has the potential to greatly affect your website’s performance, taking the server longer to retrieve the information needed from the database tables. This is the reason why database optimization is crucial. After removing all unnecessary data, your database efficiency will be improved and your web pages will start loading quicker.
