In comparison with a static HTML website where all content is on the actual website pages, any script-driven Internet site stores all of its info in a database. Just a few examples of this type of Internet sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart electronic commerce portal - in both cases, item listings, prices, blog posts, user responses etc are stored in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the info you add, the larger the database gets and if your website hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your Internet site may not work properly when you reach that limit. The consequences can vary from inability to add new information to badly functioning site or even the website displaying nothing but error messages and not being accessible at all.

MySQL Database Storage in Cloud Website Hosting

We use an innovative cloud web hosting platform and all databases set up in the cloud website hosting accounts on it are managed by a different cluster of web servers, so we have made a decision not to limit the total space they may take. Any database inside an account can be of any size, so the development of your websites will not be constrained, since we can keep connecting additional machines to the cluster if necessary for providing both more space and better load balancing. If you run a discussion forum, for instance, you shall not have to worry that a great number of users could join or that they could post too many comments. Taking advantage of our custom Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to export or import a database of any size with ease. If you face any difficulties with this task, you can check our help articles and video tutorials or you can contact our support team, that's available round-the-clock, including holidays & weekends.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers

As our semi-dedicated server accounts use an advanced cloud platform, we can afford to offer unlimited storage space for the MySQL databases created inside any such account without compromising the quality of the service. Quite the contrary, the overall efficiency is improved, simply because an entire cluster of web servers handles just MySQL queries and absolutely nothing else. We can easily keep growing the cluster storage and the computing power by adding new web servers and hard disks, so you'll never be restricted in regard to the size of any of your databases. You could freely export or import any MySQL database using the phpMyAdmin tool inside your Hepsia Internet hosting CP or you may ask our qualified professionals to assist you with this task if you have no previous experience and you are not sure how to proceed.
