You need to choose a language that will operate server side to manage the database of your web app, e.g. you could use PHP as a language and MYSQL as a database software (it's free and awesome), for examples you could use http://php.net/ and search how to use specific mysql commands in PHP, or use a framework like CodeIgniter which has built in functions for database management and you can view some of them here https://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/database/active_record.html, but make sure you use the whole user guide on how to use it and how to set up your database configuration properly!

EDIT. If you don't want to use PHP for the actual app then you can use it server side, i.e. use it as part of a server file which connect to database, handle data, send it back, then send it back to your remote app where you can handle it with Javascript.
