MySQL Database Server
If you need a mySQL database for your research or project, the SOE hosts a shared mySQL database server that is backed up nightly. As a rule of thumb, we allow databases on this shared server up to 1GB, a maximum of 25,000 queries per day, and a maximum of 10 concurrent database connections.
These mySQL databases may be used for senior projects, graduate projects or general research efforts.
If you would like to request a mySQL database for your research or project, please submit a ticket via IT Request. Your request should include:
- The database name you would prefer to use
- The name of the permanant faculty or staff member who is sponsoring the research or project
- The approximate date that the research or project will end (if it's an ongoing effort, you can specify "none").
A mySQL password will be generated for you.
