### **Databases at AlienHost**

At AlienHost we provide our users with a free MySQL Database. In this guide we'll see how to crete them and what each field provided by the database is used for.

#### **Overview.**

- In this step you'll know what the database's IP is, which is also referred to as **hostname** or **endpoint**).
