What to do if my mysql database table total rows exceeds 65535?What type of database can i use inorder to store more data?
As the documentation says
The effective maximum table size for MySQL databases is usually determined by operating system constraints on file sizes, not by MySQL internal limits.
As # D-side points out the number of rows depends on the engines used.
For example
In InnoDB, with a limit on table size of 64 terabytes and a MySQL row-size limit of 65,535 there can be 1,073,741,824 rows.
Please check here and herefor more details..Hope it helps

I have a table with huge amount of data and very frequently added rows.
If in future, table size limit reached then how to handle this problem? What is the maximum size of MySQL database table?

You could use partitioning

What is the maximum size of MySQL database table?
The effective maximum table size for MySQL databases is usually
determined by operating system constraints on file sizes, not by MySQL
internal limits. For up-to-date information operating system file size
limits, refer to the documentation specific to your operating system.

I am looking to do a range partition on one of my tables, this would be range partition. I was wondering what are the maximum number of partitions we can have in a table. I am running MYSQL 5.6.10.
Ideally I am looking to create around 8000 partitions. Also can someone advise that if so many partitions will effect performance or some way hurt database. I am also using innodb_file_per_table=ON
Thanks
From the docs:
Prior to MySQL 5.6.7, the maximum possible number of partitions for a given table not using the NDB storage engine was 1024. Beginning with MySQL 5.6.7, this limit is increased to 8192 partitions. Regardless of the MySQL Server version, this maximum includes subpartitions.
I want to store arraylist of User object.It's size is about 50,000, means 50,000 users.
So will it be possible to store into mysql.? upto how much limit i can store data into mysql.?
Mysql Scalability and Limits
Support for large databases. We use MySQL Server with databases that contain 50 million records. We also know of users who use MySQL Server with 200,000 tables and about 5,000,000,000 rows.
Support for up to 64 indexes per table (32 before MySQL 4.1.2). Each index may consist of 1 to 16 columns or parts of columns. The maximum index width is 767 bytes for InnoDB tables, or 1000 for MyISAM; before MySQL 4.1.2, the limit is 500 bytes. An index may use a prefix of a column for CHAR, VARCHAR, BLOB, or TEXT column types.

How many tables can be created in a mysql database ?
And how many columns can be created in a mysql table ?
How many rows can be inserted into a mysql table ?
How many tables can be created in a mysql database ?
MySQL has no limit on the number of databases. The underlying file system may have a limit on the number of tables. Individual storage engines may impose engine-specific constraints. InnoDB permits up to 4 billion tables.
And how many columns can be created in a mysql table ?
There is a hard limit of 4096 columns per table, but the effective maximum may be less for a given table. The exact limit depends on several interacting factors.
How many rows can be inserted into a mysql table ?
The number of rows is limited by the maximum size allowed for a table. This is OS-dependent. You can impose a limit on the number of rows by setting MAX_ROWS at table creation time.
Reference: Limits in MySQL
It really depends on the operating system and version of MySQL. Generally the MySQL file size for tables can be: (5.0 Version)
Operating System File-size Limit
Win32 w/ FAT/FAT32 2GB/4GB
Win32 w/ NTFS 2TB (possibly larger)
Linux 2.2-Intel 32-bit 2GB (LFS: 4GB)
Linux 2.4+ 4TB(using ext3 file system)
Solaris 9/10 16TB
MacOS X w/ HFS+ 2TB
NetWare w/NSS file system 8TB
For more information check http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/table-size-limit.html
Unlimited.
4096 columns.
Number of row limit is unknown to me.
See for example http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/column-count-limit.html.
Hard cap 4096 columns, but my experience: try not to use VARCHAR, use TINYTEXT.
Otherwise, you will easily reach limit "65,535-byte row size limit" even though you have less than 50 columns in the table.
Maximum row size allowed is 65535 bytes
How many records can a MySQL MyISAM table store? How many InnoDB can?
You can't count by number of records because your table can have really short records with only a few int fields or your records might be really long with hundreds of fields.
So it has to be measured in the file size of the tables.
For MYSQL: The table size limit is based on the operating system drive file system that MySQL is installed on, ranging from 2GB to 2TB.
See the MySQL reference manual for full explanations of limits for each operating system.
Concerning InnoDb and MyIsam i do not know.
From the MySQL site:
Support for large databases. We use MySQL Server with databases that contain 50 million records. We also know of users who use MySQL Server with 200,000 tables and about 5,000,000,000 rows.
The more practical limit will be the size of your key -- if your primary key is an int field, then the max number of rows will be the largest number that can be held in an int.
So if you're expecting a big table size, use bigint ... or something even bigger.
