Understanding Database Quota
Database space is the maximum disk space that can
be utilized by all your databases together. Each individual database can grow in
size as long as the total space utilized by all your databases does not exceed
the allocated Database Space. It is not possible to limit disk space for
each individual database within your website. Each database can grow up to the
maximum database space allocated. For example - if the database space allocated
to your website is 10 mb and you have added 3 databases - A, B & C. Then these 3
databases can individually grow up to 10mb but collectively cannot take more
than 10 mb space i.e. if A is 6 mb in size, B is 3 MB in size then C cannot grow
greater that 1 MB in size. Alternatively, if A was occupying 10 mb of space then
B & C cannot grow at all.
If your website runs out of database space then
queries that add data to your database will fail as there is no further
space to grow. This could lead to table corruption in some circumstances. In
case you face this issue then please refer to the "Table Corruption and
Recovery" section to find out how to recover your database.
