Re: maximum number of tables supported in a mysql database
So you want to mean that i can create (4TB/average_table_size) number of tables in a linux(2.6 kernel) operating system assuming i have that much hard disk space?

That mostly depends on how large your hard drives are... Except for the InnoDB engine (in default mode) and the NDB engine, all other database engines use 1 or more files per table. How many individual files fit on your hard drive? Here is a page describing the maximum sizes of tables based on which operating system you are using: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/table-size.html This article discusses the drawbacks to creating too many tables in the same database: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/creating-many-tables.html This page starts the section about all database engines except InnoDB and NDB: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/storage-engines.html This describes the InnoDB engine: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/innodb.html This describes NDB Cluster: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/ndbcluster.html Somewhere in those articles it may describe the theoretical limits to how many tables you can define but I can summarize them by saying that the actual limits will depend mostly on what type of operating system you have and how big your disks are. I have never heard of any one needing more tables than they could create. I would assume that a few thousand tables wouldn't be too many for most modern hard drives to handle. How many were you worried about?

No, thanks! It's, in fact, more than enough! On 12/11/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: As I read the docs, yes! Is that going to be a limitation for you?
