MySQL Databases Lie

[userbung]

Says its unlimited but its actually 400?

[ChrisPAR]

Yes, the limit is 400. This is reflected in InfinityFree’s features:

There is a limit of 400 databases, but that’s such a ridiculously high number that I can’t imagine anyone would ever hit it for any other purpose than figuring out what the limit is. So for all practical purposes it’s unlimited.

[userbung]

Well still it shouldnt be unlimited it should say 400

We can’t change that. You’ll have to bring that up with iFastNet, our hosting provider.

[Admin]

Everywhere we have control over it, we say 400. Unfortunately, the sidebar in the control panel is not one of those places. The home page of our site does, which has the actual plans information, so I don’t think that we’re misleading anyone by presenting our plans as being better than they are.

Hi userbung,

I think that Unlimited means space, not MySQL instances… The whole thing in the stats is more disk space-oriented while counting instances you’ll see when you create.

Cheers!

i dont think so, when i create a new sql database the counter goes up by 1

[ChrisPAR]

Yes, that’s what chiucs123 mentioned:

[userbung]

So then its not about space

[ChrisPAR]

No, it isn’t. As mentioned by the Admin above:
