All script applications like forums or e-shops keep their info inside a database - a collection of cells and tables that contains the site info including items, prices, comments, and so forth. Anytime you open a specific page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the specified info, then shows it. The mid-level software that connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and one of the most popular ones is MySQL. The latter is commonly used simply because it functions on a number of platforms (Linux, UNIX, Windows) and with numerous scripting languages (Python, Perl, PHP, Java), not mentioning its wonderful effectiveness even with massive databases. A lot of well-known platforms including Joomla™ or WordPress employ MySQL databases to keep their content.
