If you use a script-driven platform for your Internet site, it stores its information within a database and the bigger the website gets, the more information it collects. As an example, if you start an Internet store, the size of the database the e-commerce script employs will increase as you add more goods. Exactly the same applies for a forum script - the more users which register and the more responses they publish, the more substantial the database. If your Internet sites become more popular or you just want to add more content, this could be a problem in case that your hosting account has limited database storage space. What the particular effect of geting to the limit shall be depends on the script - the website could function adequately, but you may not be able to include any new info; the site may be shown with errors; or, in the worst scenario, the whole site might go offline.
MySQL Database Storage in Cloud Web Hosting
We use a cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform and all databases set up in the cloud web hosting accounts on it are handled by a separate cluster of servers, so we've decided not to limit the total space they can take. Any database in an account may be of any size, so the development of your sites will not be restricted, as we could keep attaching extra servers to the cluster if needed for providing both more space and better load balancing. If you run a community forum, for instance, you won't need to worry that too many users could join or that they could post way too many comments. When you take advantage of our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel, you'll 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 lessons or you can communicate with our support team, that is available round-the-clock, including holidays and weekends.
MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you host your sites inside a semi-dedicated server account through our company, all your MySQL-based script applications will work flawlessly due to the fact that we do not impose any limits on the size your databases could have. We've achieved that by using a custom-built cloud platform where the files, databases and emails run on different clusters of web servers, not on single machines. This way, the system resources of a particular cluster are literally inexhaustible as we can add additional hard disks or machines anytime if necessary. The Hepsia web hosting CP, which comes with all semi-dedicated accounts, will allow you to export and import databases of any size easily. If you use our web hosting services, your websites can grow without limitations, so you can expand your web presence and get lots of new visitors and potential customers.
