Compared with a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual website pages, any script-driven Internet site gathers all of its data in a database. Just a few examples of such sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart electronic commerce portal - in both cases, product listings, prices, blog posts, user feedback and so forth are stored in the database and not inside the actual script files. The more the info you include, the larger the database becomes and if your website hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your website might not work adequately once you hit that limit. The effects can vary from not being able to add new data to inadequately performing site or even the website showing nothing but error messages and not being accessible at all.

MySQL Database Storage in Shared Hosting

All shared hosting accounts bought from us are created on our custom cloud web hosting platform where each 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 additional servers to the cluster which manages them, the space you may use for your databases is practically unrestricted. That way, you can easily develop your Internet sites as much as you need and run any script which requires MySQL without ever being worried that you will reach some cap and that your Internet sites won't function properly. You will also be able to freely export and import databases of various size using your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Provided you have any questions in this matter, you could ask our 24/7 technical support to help you with either one of these tasks.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You won't have any troubles with the size of your MySQL databases if you have a semi-dedicated server through us because unlike many other web hosting service providers, we do not run everything on a single machine. Instead, we work with a cloud platform, so an entire cluster of web servers is dedicated to controlling the databases of our customers. When additional power or space is required, we can quickly attach more machines or hard drives to the cluster, so the storage space is virtually inexhaustible. With our services, you can expand your websites or popularize them as much as you'd like without having to worry that your MySQL databases will expand too much. Regardless of the size of a particular database, you will be able to export or import it with ease through your web hosting CP.
