Since script-driven apps gather their info in a database, adding more information to this sort of website shall not lead to a larger size of the app files, but in a bigger size of the database the website uses. In case you run a WordPress blog, for example, the disk space which its database employs will expand whenever you add new posts and visitors leave opinions below them. A growing database may become a problem if the hosting account that you use has limited space and sometimes even plans with unlimited space in general have limited database storage space. After you reach the limit, you shall not be able to add new info. Other probable outcomes are that your site may not perform the way it ought to or that it may not appear online at all, which could result in lost customers.

MySQL Database Storage in Shared Hosting

We use a cutting-edge cloud website hosting platform and all databases created in the shared hosting accounts on it are controlled by an independent cluster of web servers, so we have made the decision to not limit the total space they can take. Any database inside an account can be of any size, so the development of your websites won't be limited, as we could keep attaching additional machines to the cluster if required for providing both more space and far better load balancing. If you run a community forum, for example, you won't need to worry that too many users may join or that they could post far too many comments. When you use our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to export or import a database of any size without difficulty.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers

As our semi-dedicated server accounts use an advanced cloud platform, we can afford to offer unrestricted storage space for the MySQL databases created inside any such account while not compromising the quality of the service. Quite the contrary, the overall efficiency is improved, simply because a whole cluster of web servers handles just MySQL queries and nothing else. We could keep expanding the cluster storage and the computing power by putting in new machines and hard disk drives, so you'll never be confined in regard to the size of any one of your databases. You may freely export or import any MySQL database via the phpMyAdmin tool in your Hepsia web hosting CP or you could ask our qualified professionals to assist you with this task provided you have no previous experience and you aren't sure what you should do.
