phpMyAdmin is a feature-rich tool written in PHP, that will give you complete control of a MySQL database. You can do virtually everything - set up fields, rows and tables, erase them or modify their content, export or import a whole database or only a particular part of it, and execute MySQL commands. The tool is necessary when you would like to switch web hosting providers, due to the fact that you can conveniently create a full backup of a database in a variety of formats (SQL, CSV, XML). You shall end up with only one file that contains the whole content of the database, so you can download it from the present provider, upload it to the hosting server of the new one and import it using the same tool on their end. Your website will look exactly the same, simply because all script applications store their data in a database. With phpMyAdmin you can also easily search and replace content of your choice across the entire website - a word, an expression or a link, for instance.
phpMyAdmin in Cloud Website Hosting
You will be able to employ phpMyAdmin to access any database you create inside a cloud website hosting account acquired from our company because we offer the tool by default with all of our hosting plans. After you sign in to your Hepsia web hosting CP and set up a new database inside the MySQL Databases section, a tiny phpMyAdmin icon will appear on its right-hand side. What it takes to log in immediately is to click on this icon and the tool shall open in a new browser tab, so you can handle the database data. That's also the way to import a database when you are moving your site from another provider to our state-of-the-art cloud hosting platform. A different way to log in to a database is if you take advantage of our direct phpMyAdmin login URL, but you have to know the DB account information. This option will enable you to grant access to any database to other individuals, without granting them access to the whole hosting account.
phpMyAdmin in Semi-dedicated Servers
phpMyAdmin is one of the software tools that come with our Linux semi-dedicated plans. You could log into it and handle all of your MySQL databases if you click on the phpMyAdmin icon located on the right side of each and every database that you have created using your Hepsia hosting CP. You shall not have to do anything else, as our system shall log you in automatically and you will be able to proceed with the tasks you need to do - import a database file from another provider, modify some content, and so on. You can access a database by using the direct phpMyAdmin login page also, but in cases like this you'll have to input the correct account information. You could use this option if you hire a web developer, as they can work on your site without accessing your web hosting CP. Thus, all files and emails you have inside the account will be protected.
