MySql has no limit on the number of databases, though your underlying filesystem may impose limitations that practically limit the number of tables in a MySQL database.

MySQL has no limit on the number of databases. The underlying file system may have a limit on the number of tables. Individual storage engines may impose engine-specific constraints. InnoDB [only] permits up to 4 billion tables.

It also has a nice manual. And there's google.
