BlueHost phpMyAdmin Review

phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin is a free PHP application for administering MySQL databases. The administration is done via HTTP using a browser. Hence databases on remote computers over a network connection or via the Internet can be administered. To use the program no knowledge of SQL is required, since the application works on the WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) process.

phpMyAdmin is licensed under the GNU General Public License. It is also included in many Linux distributions and it is available in 57 languages.
phpMyAdmin is a widely used application and is used among other things, by large web hosting providers.

It was initiated by Tobias Ratschiller and is based on St. Peter’s  phpPgAdmin from the year 1997. The idea was to implement a web-based application for administration of MySQL. Tobias Ratschiller began in 1998 with work on a PHP-based Web front end for MySQL. In 2000, he stopped his work due to lack of time. At the time, phpmyadmin already one of the most popular PHP applications and MySQL administration tools, with large user and developer community. In 2001 Olivier Müller, Marc Delisle and Loïc Chapeaux registered the phpMyAdmin project at SourceForge, and continued the development.
