Connecting PHP to database

​MySQL database is the database of choice for PHP. MySQL went through several iterations of development. MySQL database is easy to use and manage. Blogging software Wordpress uses MySQL database as storage engine.

MySQL is available as free software. Paid option is also available.

Another popular database choice is Postgres. I think that it is very similar to Oracle database. I had very little experience with it.

MariaDB is very similar to MySQL, but it my opinion it has better performance.
