Compared with a static HTML site where all content is on the actual pages of the site, any script-driven website stores its data inside a database. Just a few examples of this type of sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart e-commerce portal - in both cases, product or service listings, rates, blog posts, user feedback etc are collected in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the data you add, the larger the database gets and if your Internet hosting plan has some limit for the maximum size a database could have, your Internet site might not function adequately once you reach that limit. The end results can vary from not being able to include new content to badly working site or even the site displaying only error messages and not being available at all.

MySQL Database Storage in Shared Web Hosting

All shared web hosting accounts bought from our company are created on our custom cloud website hosting platform where every part of the hosting service has its own cluster of servers. The databases aren't an exception and because we can keep adding additional servers to the cluster which handles them, the space that you may use for your databases is basically unlimited. Thus, you can grow your sites as much as you want and run any script that requires MySQL without ever having to worry you'll reach some cap and that your websites will not work as expected. Additionally, you'll be able to freely export and import databases of any size through your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. In case you have any questions in this matter, you could ask our 24x7x365 tech support to help you with either one of these tasks.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers

You'll not have any troubles with the size of your MySQL databases in case you have a semi-dedicated server from us due to the fact that different from many other website hosting service providers, we do not run everything on a single machine. Rather, we work with a cloud platform, so a whole cluster of machines is dedicated to managing the databases of our clients. Every time extra power or space is needed, we can simply attach more web servers or hard disks to the cluster, so the disk space is virtually inexhaustible. With our services, you may grow your sites or popularize them as much as you want without having to worry that your MySQL databases will grow too much. No matter the size of an individual database, you'll be able to export or import it without difficulty using your web hosting CP.
