We offer MySQL database connections for a one-time
setup fee of $30.
MySQL is an easy to use database that supports
SQL (Structured Query Language) statements and easy connections
using ODBC
(Open Database Connectivity), Perl, PHP,
or other methods. However, MySQL is limited to 500 - 1000
total external client connections by design. Since your
MySQL connection is on a shared server with other sites,
this may limit your connections at peak times. This is not
under the control of Zillionbucks.com. If you have a high-volume
site (hundreds of hits at a time) that uses database access,
you may want to consider designing your site with access
to a commercially sold database that supports thousands
of connections at a time. For further information on MySQL
connection limitations, please go to http://www.mysql.com/doc/T/o/Too_many_connections.html
and read about this issue. Below is a quote from the MySQL
site:
"The maximum number of connects MySQL
is depending on how good the thread library is on a given
platform. Linux or Solaris should be able to support 500-1000
simultaneous connections, depending on how much RAM you
have and what your clients are doing."
