What are the best practices for creating and managing databases using PHPMyAdmin?

Best practices for creating and managing databases using PHPMyAdmin include regularly backing up your databases, using strong passwords for database users, avoiding storing sensitive information in plain text, and regularly optimizing and cleaning up your databases to improve performance. 

// Example of creating a new database in PHPMyAdmin
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";

// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);

// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}

// Create database
$sql = "CREATE DATABASE myDB";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
    echo "Database created successfully";
} else {
    echo "Error creating database: " . $conn->error;
}

$conn->close();
