How can the number of connections in MySQL be set?
The MySQL connection count can be configured using the following methods:
- To set connections through the command line: You can connect to the database server using MySQL’s command line tool (such as MySQL Command Line Client), and then use the following command to adjust the connection limit.
- Establish the maximum number of connections to be 100 globally.
- This will set the maximum number of connections to 100. Please note that this setting will be reset after the database server is restarted.
- To configure: You can edit the configuration file of MySQL (such as my.cnf or my.ini), locate the [mysqld] section, and add or modify the following lines.
- the maximum number of connections is 100
- This will set the maximum number of connections to 100. Save the file and restart the MySQL server to apply the setting.
- You can configure the Max Connections setting in the MySQL Workbench by connecting to the database server and navigating to Instance -> Options File. In the Networking tab, adjust the Max Connections value to the desired maximum number of connections. Save the changes and restart the MySQL server for the settings to take effect.
Please note that setting high connection numbers may have a negative impact on server performance, so it is important to configure appropriately based on server hardware and application requirements.
