MySQL 5 Databases in Shared Hosting

The in-house built Hepsia Control Panel offered with our Linux shared hosting will permit you to manage all your MySQL databases effortlessly. It takes only a couple of clicks to set up a completely new database and with only one more click you could back it up if you would like to have a copy before you update your web site, for example. You will be able to change the password, erase a database or allow remote access to it just as fast. For the latter option you'll be able to opt for the IP addresses that'll be able to connect to the database remotely in order to make sure that unauthorized people will not be able to access your info. If you want to see the database content or change any cell or table via the Control Panel, you may use phpMyAdmin, an effective web-based interface. Using any one of our script-driven apps will also be quite simple as our script installer will create a database for the script you have chosen automatically.
