There are several different ways to store dates and times in MySQL, and knowing which one to use requires understanding what you'll be storing and how MySQL handles each type.

There are five column types that you can use to store temporal data in MySQL. They are:

• DATE
• DATETIME
• TIMESTAMP
• YEAR
• TIME

Each column type stores slightly different data, has different minimum and maximum values, and requires different amounts of storage.

In the table below, you'll see each column type and their various attributes.

| Column    | Data        | Bytes | Min                 | Max                 |
|-----------|-------------|-------|---------------------|---------------------|
| DATE      | Date only   | 3     | 1000-01-01          | 9999-12-31          |
| DATETIME …

In this blog, we will discuss a few such features that will put resource restrictions on users.

Sometimes, due to unprecedented growth or huge transactions, a single user makes too many connections, and the MySQL server gets starved of free connections. This blocks the DBA from logging into MySQL to fix it. To fix it in MySQL 5.7 and below, we have to do a restart. For MySQL 8, it can be done without a restart, but we have to configure the admin interface beforehand. You can read more about it here in Dealing With “Too Many Connections” Error in MySQL 8.
