Information_schema

Recommended Posts

In PHPmyadmin where i see my databases i see information_schema. Is that considered a database? because in my website i use only 1 database, so if its not considered a database i don't have to choose 5 databases and have to pay an extra 0.99$ per month. If its a database, can i just delete it?

I don't think they count it because I have that also but when I look at the main page of cpanel it says I am only using one datebase (which is the one that my smf forum is on). I was wondering the same thing as you for a while but I think when they say one datebase it doesn't count the ones that are there already I think it means that you get to create one other than that.If I am wrong please correct me so khalilov doesn't screw up his hosting because I was wrong.

Yes, the information_schema is considered a database because it is the MySql Server core database which stores every thing about all of your databases and you can't delete or even modify it or it's content.
Now regarding if it counts in your databases list, well I think that this database does not count because of what i say before.

It is a database, but it is not counted as a hosted database (you don't give money nor MyCents for it).You have a simple way of looking at this. As soon as you will be hosted, have a look at the number of databases you own in the left-side bar of your Xisto cpanel, you will see that you have no database (number 0/5, or something like that).However, you will probably be able to connect to phpMyadmin and you will see this information_schema database.And as you will have created your first database, you will still see it besides your newly created database.
