Maximum number of records in a MySQL database table
database, database-table, limit, mysql
Solution
mysql int types can do quite a few rows: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/numeric-types.html
unsigned `int` largest value is `4,294,967,295` unsigned `bigint` largest value is `18,446,744,073,709,551,615`
Problem
What is the upper limit of records for MySQL database table. I'm wondering about autoincrement field. What would happen if I add milions of records? How to handle this kind of situations? Thx!
