Plesk 11.5 : How to Creating and Remove Databases

Website Databases

If your website incorporates custom data processing applications or is designed to generate web pages dynamically, you will probably need a database for storing and retrieving data.

In Panel, you can manually create a new database for your site, make a database copy and manage database user accounts. These operations are available in Websites & Domains tab > Databases. In addition, you can use the third-party database management tools supplied with Panel to edit tables in databases, export and import data, and run SQL queries. These tools are available under the Webadmin link in Websites & Domains tab > Databases and may vary depending on the database type. For example, Panel employs phpMyAdmin to manage MySQL databases.

Note that when you install an app from the Application Catalog, all required databases and database user accounts are created automatically. Alternatively, you can assign a manually created user account to a database created by a web app. For more information, see the section Using Website Applications > App Databases.
