If you use a script-driven platform for your Internet site, it stores its information within a database and the bigger the website becomes, the more data it collects. For instance, if you start an Internet based store, the size of the database the e-commerce script employs will increase whenever you add more goods. The same applies for a forum script - the more users which register and the more comments they post, the larger the database. If your websites become more popular or you simply want to include more content, this can be a problem in the event that your web hosting account has limited database space. What the specific effect of reaching the limit shall be depends on the script - the website can work correctly, but you may not be able to add any new information; the website can be displayed with errors; or, in the worst case scenario, the entire internet site could simply go offline.
MySQL Database Storage in Shared Web Hosting
If you get a shared web hosting service from us, we shall never restrict the growth of any MySQL-driven website which you host inside the account due to the fact that our plans come with unlimited database storage space. Though massive databases could have an effect on the functionality of an Internet site regardless of the type of Internet hosting, we do not have a limit both for the total space all databases might take and for the overall size of one database. You could run an Internet based store with as many products and services as you wish or a forum without worrying that you may have to delete old posts or limit the amount of registered users that you can have. Our Hepsia Internet hosting Control Panel will also permit you to import or export databases within your account irrespective of their size. If you experience any difficulties with the latter, our technical support is available 24/7 to aid you.
MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers
Because our semi-dedicated server accounts work with an advanced cloud platform, we can afford to provide limitless storage space for the MySQL databases created inside any such account while not compromising the quality of the service. On the contrary, the performance is improved, because an entire cluster of web servers handles only MySQL queries and nothing else. We could keep expanding the cluster storage and the processing power by attaching new web servers and hard disks, so you will never be confined in regard to the size of any of your databases. You can freely export or import any MySQL database via the phpMyAdmin tool inside your Hepsia web hosting CP or you may ask our technicians to help you with this task if you have no previous experience and you aren't sure how to proceed.
