If you have shell access, you can run mysqldump to write the DDL and
data to a sql file. See the mysqldump manual page for its many options.
AFAIK MySQL does not provide upgrade scripts to any version, so if there
is a version difference between your internal and web hosts, you may
have to make adjustments to the script which mysqldump generates.
