If you use a script-driven platform for your Internet site, it stores its information in a database and the more substantial the Internet site gets, the more data it collects. As an example, if you launch an electronic store, the size of the database the e-commerce script uses will increase as you add more items. The same is valid for a forum script - the more users which register and the more opinions they submit, the bigger the database. If your sites gain popularity or you just want to add more content, this can become a problem in case that your web hosting account has limited database space for storage. The exact effect of hitting the limit will be depends on the script - the website can perform properly, but you may not be able to add any new info; the internet site may be displayed with errors; or, in the worst case scenario, the entire site might go offline.

MySQL Database Storage in Shared Website Hosting

Because of our custom cloud website hosting platform, we could offer unlimited space for the MySQL databases which you create in your shared website hosting account. Different from many web hosting companies that run everything on a single machine, we have a whole cluster that controls only the databases and nothing else. For that reason, not only is the overall performance better, but the cluster capacity is also infinite as we could add more web servers at any time if necessary. That way your Internet sites can keep evolving without restrictions. You could import or export any database no matter its size via the Hepsia Internet hosting CP and the phpMyAdmin tool, which you can use to control your databases. If you need support, you may always check our video lessons or communicate with our support representatives who will help you with all database-related questions within the hour.

When more power or space is required, we can easily attach more web servers or hard disks to the cluster, so the disk space is practically infinite. With our services, you could develop your Internet sites or popularize them as much as you'd like without worrying that your MySQL databases shall grow too much. Whatever the size of a particular database, you'll be able to export or import it with ease via your website hosting Control Panel.
