phpMyAdmin is an efficient PHP-based software tool employed to handle MySQL databases via a web interface. You can use it to run MySQL commands, create, modify and delete cells, rows and tables or manage users with separate levels of access to the database in question. These tasks could be performed from any device given that you have a browser and access to the website hosting account where the database is. With phpMyAdmin, you can also export or import a whole database, which is a very helpful feature if you need to migrate a web site from one hosting provider to another. Several different file formats are supported for the so-called dump file - CSV, SQL, XML and PDF, depending on what you need to do - move the content from one internet hosting account to another, preview a whole database in a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel, and so forth.

phpMyAdmin in Hosting

phpMyAdmin is part of each Linux hosting we provide and it is accessible via our tailor-made Hepsia CP. A small phpMyAdmin icon shall be shown on the right side of each database you set up inside the MySQL Databases section of the CP and by clicking on the icon for the database you want to access, you'll be logged into the application automatically in a new tab of your browser. Then you can do everything you would like - export the entire or part of the data, import a database, run SQL queries, search and replace terms. If you do not want to go through the CP, you'll also be able to log in through a direct phpMyAdmin login page, but you need to know the database account information. The last function is beneficial if you have to give access to a database to a third-party.

phpMyAdmin in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you have a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you will be able to access phpMyAdmin to manage any MySQL database that you create in your account through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. A new tab will open inside your web browser the instant you click on the phpMyAdmin icon for a particular database and you will be logged into the sophisticated tool automatically, so you'll not have to enter the database username or password. If you would like to grant access to another person such as a web designer, for example, you could give them the database login credentials and they'll be able to log in from a direct link to phpMyAdmin, so they will never need access to your whole hosting account. This option will allow you to keep your files and emails safe at all times.
