phpMyAdmin is a feature-rich tool developed in PHP, which shall offer you total control over a MySQL database. You may do absolutely everything - create fields, rows and tables, erase them or modify their data, export or import a whole database or just a certain part of it, and execute MySQL commands. The tool is irreplaceable when you need to switch web hosting providers, since you may effortlessly generate a full backup of a database in a number of formats (SQL, CSV, XML). You shall end up with a single file which contains the entire content of the database, so you can easily download it from the present provider, upload it to the web server of the new one and import it through the same tool on their end. Your website will look exactly the same, because all script apps store their content in a database. With phpMyAdmin you can also quickly search and replace content material of your choosing across the whole website - a word, an expression or a link, for example.
phpMyAdmin in Hosting
phpMyAdmin is part of every Linux hosting plan we offer and it is accessible from our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel. A tiny phpMyAdmin icon shall be displayed on the right side of every database that you create inside the MySQL Databases section of the CP and by clicking on the icon for the database which you want to access, you will be logged into the application automatically in a new tab of your Internet browser. Then you can do everything you'd like - export the whole or a part of the data, import a database, run SQL queries, search and modify terms. If you don't want to employ the CP, you shall also be able to log in through a direct phpMyAdmin login page, but you should know the database username and password. The last feature is useful if you have to provide access to a database to a third-party.
phpMyAdmin in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you host your script-driven site in a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you will be able to administer the site database manually without any difficulty simply because you can log in to phpMyAdmin directly from your hosting CP. Any MySQL database that you set up will be listed inside the Databases section of your account and it shall have a phpMyAdmin icon on its right side. Accessing the tool for a certain database is as basic as clicking on that icon and our system shall open a new tab inside your browser and it'll log you in automatically, to enable you to export/import or modify any content you want. We also offer the option to log in directly to phpMyAdmin without going through your Control Panel. In this case, the login is manual and requires a username and a password. This feature enables you to grant access to a specific database to other people without giving them access to your Internet hosting account.
