All script apps like forums or virtual stores save their info inside a database - a set of cells and tables which contains all the site info such as items, prices, comments, and many others. Anytime you open a certain page, the script connects to the database and retrieves the needed information, then displays it. The intermediary software which connects the script and the database is known as a database management system and amongst the most widely used ones is MySQL. The latter is widely used because it operates on a variety of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows) and with a range of scripting languages (Python, PHP, Perl, Java), not mentioning its wonderful performance even with huge databases. A lot of widely used platforms including WordPress or Joomla™ work with MySQL databases to store their content.
