Compared with a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual website pages, any script-driven site stores its data in a database. Just a couple of examples of such websites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart e-commerce portal - in both cases, product or service listings, rates, blog posts, user responses and so on are gathered in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the information you add, the bigger the database gets and if your hosting plan has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your website might not perform adequately when you hit that limit. The results can vary from not being able to add new information to improperly functioning website or even the site displaying only error messages and not being accessible at all.
MySQL Database Storage in Hosting
Because of our custom cloud website hosting platform, we are able to offer unlimited space for the MySQL databases that you create inside your hosting account. Unlike many Internet hosting providers that run everything on just a single web server, we have a whole cluster that controls just the databases and nothing else. Consequently, not only is the performance better, but the cluster capacity is also limitless because we can easily add more machines at any time if needed. In this way your sites could keep expanding without limits. You could import or export any database no matter what its size using the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and the phpMyAdmin tool, that you can use to control your databases. If you want assistance, you may always check out our instructional videos or make contact with our support representatives who will help you with all database-related questions within the hour.
