We come across this topic of discussion lately, asking what is the hostgator mysql database size limits is. Hostgator shared web hosting is with cpanel, and in cpanel commonly there is no limit set to mysql database file size. This mean you can have 1MB database or 1000MB database size or even 100GB mysql database size. There is no limit set for the mysql database size. The only limit and quata that you can see is the overall account resource usage and quata, which include disk storage usage, cpu processing usage, email resource usage, etc.
Shared web hosting will have lower server resources at your disposal. If you are looking for more server resources, and require hosting plan that can host your GB of mysql database file size, its time to seriously consider virtual private server or even a new dedicated server plan. Hostgator vps hosting are from $19.95 per month, and their dedicated server are highly powerful too, suitable for your large scale mysql database requirement.
Hostgator shared hosting $4.95 per month are with mysql database, and no limit are set to mysql database size, hence your account unlimited storage space applies to your mysql database files as well.

As we already know, hostgator database size is not limited to certain number of file size per database. Your hostgator hosting plan can have MySQL database can be in any size, 1MB, 100MB, or more… as long there is sufficient disc space in your cpanel account to host the file size. If you are concerning about hostgator hosting is handling mysql database query size and want to know what the limit is… the better question to ask is how many simultaneous mysql database connection is allow at your hostgator hosting. As we found out, each of your cpanel account allow you to execute 25 MySQL database connection at the same time. Usually a PHP script that carry out sequence of mysql queries will complete the query within second and close the database connection, regardless how many queries per connection, its counted as one database connection only. The chance to have 25 simultaneous mysql database connection at one time from your cpanel account is very small. Unless you are running a website with thousand of user online at the same time for example.
Also, hostgator mysql server will timeout in 15 to 30 second of inactivity. Meaning the mysql database connection made will be terminated if there is no activity by php scritps for example. This help recover and release the database resource back to server.
