Summary

---

"Databases store user accounts and bank accounts. Your money is managed and cleaned here.
Upgrade the database to increase your max $ capacity."

---

The Database is a Business Node that stores money transferred from a Server Farm or stolen from a hack. The total amount of money that a Database can store is equal to the Node Capacity statistic. The maximum amount of money that can be stored on your network is equal to the combined capacity of all your Database and Core nodes, and is shown in the Network Capacity statistic.

When the Database has reached its capacity, any excess money that is transferred from a Server Farm will be returned, while any excess money from a hack will be discarded.

The maximum level a Database can be upgraded to is 21. The maximum number of Databases you can have on your network is three. When deleting nodes, you will be unable to delete a Database unless you have three on your network already.

Tips

• You will need 2 Database Nodes to upgrade your Core past level 7.
• Since they are required for Core progression, the game will restrict your ability to delete Database nodes from the network.
