eUKhost, a renowned UK hosting company, has become a Gold Sponsor of phpMyAdmin as part of its continued commitment to advancing hosting technology.
PhpMyAdmin is a popular MySQL manager that comes standard with the industry-leading cPanel control panel. Its user-friendly interface allows website administrators to do a variety of administrative activities, such as establishing databases, performing queries, and adding user accounts.
Robert King, who serves the role of Director at eUKhost, had the following to say:
phpMyAdmin has proved itself to be a highly effective admin tool that’s very popular with our customers, many of whom get access to it through our cPanel and Plesk Hosting solutions. Our sponsorship reflects eukhost’s commitment to helping the tool’s developers expand its range of features and capabilities, enabling it to be of even greater value as hosting environments evolve. Our forum is a great way for customers to engage with us and each other to ask questions and solve problems. The relaunch will make it easier for customers to find useful information and get help.
The phpMyAdmin Team had the following to say:
We at phpMyAdmin are pleased to partner with eukhost; as an open-source project, we depend heavily on our community partners for support to cover our ongoing expenses and help fund future development. We’re grateful that eukhost has decided to support our work.
Following sponsorships of Let’s Encrypt, a free SSL certificate supplier, in 2020 and the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF), a UK charity dedicated to eliminating child sexual abuse content from the internet, in 2021, this is eUKhost’s third sponsorship in as many years.
eUKhost is also planning to revive its renowned web hosting community forum in addition to the sponsorship. The community forum, in addition to the company’s large blog and knowledgebase, is a significant resource for clients, complementing the company’s well-respected 24/7 technical support.

The sponsorship of phpMyAdmin and the relaunch of the forum come at an exciting time for the Yorkshire-based hosting company. It recently relocated its headquarters, along with its parent business, the Hyperslice Group, to the famous Platform tech cluster in central Leeds and created additional technical offices in York. It is now hiring and exploring locations for a new data center as part of a £5 million development strategy.
