A MySQL database is a system for managing and storing your website’s data. It’s essential for websites that require data storage and retrieval, like eCommerce sites, blogs, or forums. MySQL databases hold everything from user information to content posts, making them integral for dynamic websites.

Good to Know: Most modern websites, especially those using content management systems like WordPress, require a MySQL database to function properly.
