How to Restore a Database

Restore a database using HostPanel it’s very easy.  But before we start the tutorial, Let’s know some basic. Websites were very different in the past. They primarily consist of simple HTML documents that use attractive colored backgrounds and low-resolution GIF animations.

We don’t really see this website anymore. Even if you plan to launch something as simple as a personal blog, you’re more likely to create it using WordPress than write the HTML code. With WordPress, you have no longer a collection of static HTML documents. Instead, you have a CMS application that runs on a hosting server and uses a live database to deliver the right content to the right user.

The performance of a complete website depends on the health of its database, which is why many web hosts will give you tools to manage and control them. Most important are those that can ensure your data can be recovered if the worst happens.
