Compared with a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual website pages, any script-driven site stores its information inside a database. A few examples of such Internet sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart electronic commerce portal - in both cases, product or service listings, rates, blog posts, user reviews and so on are gathered in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the data you add, the larger the database becomes and if your web hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your Internet site may not work properly after you hit that limit. The results can vary from being unable to include new content to improperly working website or even the site displaying only error messages and not being accessible at all.
MySQL Database Storage in Shared Web Hosting
All shared web hosting accounts bought from our company are created on our custom cloud web hosting platform where every part of the hosting service has its own cluster of servers. The databases aren't an exception and considering the fact that we can easily keep adding extra web servers to the cluster that manages them, the space you may use for your databases is basically unlimited. This way, you could expand your sites as much as you want and run any script which requires MySQL without ever being concerned you'll reach some cap and that your Internet sites won't function adequately. You'll also be able to freely export and import databases of various size via your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Provided you have any questions in this matter, you can ask our 24/7 tech support team to aid you with either one of these tasks.
MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you host your sites in a semi-dedicated server account from our company, all your MySQL-based script applications will work perfectly as we do not impose any restrictions on the size that your databases could have. We've achieved that by employing a custom-built cloud platform where the files, databases and emails run on different clusters of web servers, not on single machines. Thus, the system resources of a specific cluster are practically infinite as we could add additional hard drives or web servers anytime if necessary. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with all semi-dedicated accounts, will allow you to export and import databases of any size easily. If you use our Internet hosting services, your sites can grow without any restrictions, allowing you to expand your web presence and get lots of new visitors and potential customers.
