MySQL User Privileges

For security and performance reasons, we does not allow shared hosting accounts to have MySQL Superuser Access. Instead, if your account is on a Shared Server, you are granted the following set of MySQL privileges :

• ALTER
• CREATE
• CREATE ROUTINE
• CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES
• CREATE VIEW
• DELETE
• DROP
• EXECUTE
• INDEX
• INSERT
• LOCK TABLES
• REFERENCES
• SELECT
• SHOW VIEW
• TRIGGER
• UPDATE

MySQL Event Scheduler

The set of User Privileges listed above does not allow you to use the MySQL Event Scheduler on a Shared Server. In addition to the possible security implications of granting additional privileges, running the Event Scheduler in a Shared Environment could potentially cause high resource usage and affect other accounts.

However, the MySQL Event Scheduler can be enabled for Virtual Private Server (VPS) and Dedicated Servers as Users are free to configure the MySQL Event Scheduler on their Systems.
