If you use a script-driven platform for your site, it stores its info in a database and the larger the website gets, the more data it gathers. For example, if you start an electronic store, the size of the database the e-commerce script employs will increase any time you add more goods. The exact same is valid for a forum script - the more users that register and the more comments they publish, the bigger the database. If your sites gain popularity or you simply want to add more content, this might become a problem if your Internet hosting account has limited database storage space. What the specific effect of reaching the limit shall be depends on the script - the site can function correctly, but you may not be able to add any new content; the site may be displayed with errors; or, in the worst scenario, the whole website may simply go offline.

MySQL Database Storage in Shared Website Hosting

All shared website hosting accounts acquired through our company are created on our custom cloud Internet hosting platform where every part of the hosting service has its own cluster of servers. The databases are not an exception and since we can easily keep adding extra web servers to the cluster which manages them, the space that you may use for your databases is virtually unrestricted. That way, you can develop your sites as much as you would like and run any script that requires MySQL without ever having to worry that you will reach some cap and that your sites won't work properly. Additionally, you'll be able to freely export and import databases of any size via your Hepsia hosting CP. In case you have any questions in this matter, you could ask our 24x7 technical support to help you with either one of these tasks.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will not have any difficulties with the size of your MySQL databases if you have a semi-dedicated server through our company due to the fact that different from many other providers, we do not run everything on one server. Instead, we work with a cloud platform, so a whole cluster of servers is dedicated to controlling the databases of our clients. When more power or space is required, we can just attach more servers or hard disk drives to the cluster, so the disk space is virtually infinite. With our services, you could grow your sites or popularize them as much as you want without worrying that your MySQL databases shall grow too much. Regardless of the size of a particular database, you'll be able to export or import it easily through your hosting Control Panel.
