Solution 1

If they are on the same hosting service then yes.
If not, it will depend on whether the hosting service providing the database server allows external access.

Solution 2

If you can connect to the database (have permissions, know the ip address and instance name, etc), then yes, you can use the database from multiple web sites.

Hi Christina,

you can use same MySQL database for multiple websites with following points needs to take care
1. all websites are using same database connection string with no restriction on user access.
2. if different users are created on database they have full access for query executions.

in fact, I have used same DB for my 2 websites for capture customer details.. obvious I have used different table name for different websites.

Hope this will help you.
