Uploading databases to a server for an ASP.NET MVC application?

Question

I have uploaded the website files using the publishing wizard in Visual Studio. I used FTP to transfer those files. Now I'm not sure how to get my databases hooked up.

I used Code First Migrations in Entity Framework for my databases. I have three databases in my project that have been stored locally. I am trying to add them through cPanel. HostGator is the provider.

I have created 3 MySQL databases in cPanel, but I'm not sure where to go from there and I'm having trouble finding information online.

You need a Server and a correct ConnectionString. Then you can create the dB again. What is the thing you have problems with? You can't connect to a local db from an external server. — Nikolaus

Thank you, but I have already created the databases locally, I just don't know how to get them online

Depends on where the DBs are hosted and what kind of access you have to the DB Server. You could create the databases using MySQL Workbench and then run a script to generate the schema
