    I was wondering for one of my sites I have one database for it but the catch is there are about 5 different scripts running on the same database... does it matter i keep them all on the same database or should i move them to each separate databases...

    I am talking about mysql..

    I believe its better to give one database per site... keeps things neat when you get lots of sites...

    I would have different ones.

    Some hosts limit the number of connections at the same time.

    If your one site have Insertion & Modification query and rest of sites have read only, then ok. Other wise you must have one script one database to avoid redundancy.
