phpMyAdmin is a feature-rich tool coded in PHP, that will give you full control over a MySQL database. You could do literally everything - create fields, rows and tables, erase them or alter their content, export or import an entire database or only a specific part of it, and execute MySQL commands. The tool is necessary in case you would like to switch hosting providers, because you could very easily create a full backup of a database in a number of formats (SQL, CSV, XML). You will end up with a single file containing the whole content of the database, so you can download it from the present provider, upload it to the server of the new one and import it via the same tool on their end. Your website shall look exactly the same, simply because all script applications store their content within a database. With phpMyAdmin you can also quickly search and replace content material of your choice across the entire website - a word, a phrase or a link, for example.

phpMyAdmin in Cloud Hosting

phpMyAdmin is part of each and every Linux cloud hosting which we offer and it is accessible from our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. A little phpMyAdmin icon will be shown on the right side of each database which you set up in the MySQL Databases section of the Control Panel and by clicking on the icon for the database you want to access, you shall be logged into the app instantly in a new tab of your browser. Then you can do anything you'd like - export the whole or part of the data, import a database, run SQL queries, search and change terms. If you do not want to use the Control Panel, you will also be able to sign in via a direct phpMyAdmin login page, but you must know the database account information. The last function is handy if you have to give access to a database to a third-party.
