If you use a script-driven platform for your Internet site, it stores its info within a database and the larger the Internet site becomes, the more data it gathers. As an example, if you launch an online store, the size of the database which the e-commerce script employs shall increase any time you add more goods. The exact same applies for a forum script - the more users which register and the more comments they post, the more substantial the database. If your websites become popular or you would like to include more content, this can become a problem in case that your website hosting account has limited database space for storage. What the specific effect of reaching the limit shall be depends on the script - the Internet site could function adequately, but you may not be able to add any new info; the website can be shown with errors; or, in the most severe scenario, the entire site may simply go offline.
MySQL Database Storage in Shared Hosting
We use an innovative cloud website hosting platform and all databases set up in the shared hosting accounts on it are handled by a separate cluster of web servers, so we have decided to not limit the total space they can take. Each database inside an account could be of any size, so the expansion of your websites will not be constrained, since we can keep attaching more and more machines to the cluster if required for providing both more space and far better load balancing. In case you run a discussion forum, for example, you'll not have to worry that too many users may join or that they may post way too many comments. Taking advantage of our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to export or import a database of any size with no trouble. If you experience any issues with this task, you can look at our help articles and video tutorials or you may get in touch with our technical support crew, that's available 24-7, including weekends & holidays.
MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you host your Internet sites in a semi-dedicated server account from our company, all your MySQL-based script applications shall work flawlessly because we do not impose any limitations on the size that your databases may have. We've achieved that by working with a custom-built cloud platform in which the files, databases and email messages run on independent clusters of web servers, not on single machines. That way, the system resources of a given cluster are literally limitless as we can easily add additional hard drives or machines anytime if needed. The Hepsia hosting CP, provided with all semi-dedicated accounts, will permit you to export and import databases of any size with ease. If you use our Internet hosting services, your websites can grow with no restrictions, so you can expand your worldwide web presence and get a lot of new website visitors and potential customers.
