title: TINYTEXT, TEXT, MEDIUMTEXT, and LONGTEXT maximum storage sizes
body: <p>Per <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/blob.html" rel="noreferrer">the MySQL docs</a>, there are four TEXT types:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>TINYTEXT</li>
  <li>TEXT</li>
  <li>MEDIUMTEXT</li>
  <li>LONGTEXT</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>What is the maximum length that I can store in a column of each data type assuming the character encoding is UTF-8?</p>
