Given that script-driven apps collect their content within a database, adding more content to such a website won't cause a bigger size of the app files, but in a larger size of the database your website uses. If you happen to run a WordPress blog, for example, the disk space which its database employs will grow as you add new posts and visitors leave opinions underneath them. An increasing database can become an issue if the hosting account you use has limited storage space and sometimes even plans with unlimited space in general still have limited database storage space. If you reach the limit, you shall not be able to add new info. Other possible outcomes are that your site may not work the way it ought to or that it may not appear online at all, which might result in lost customers.
MySQL Database Storage in Shared Hosting
Thanks to our custom cloud hosting platform, we could offer unlimited space for the MySQL databases you create in your shared hosting account. In contrast to many web hosting companies which run everything on a single server, we have a whole cluster which handles just the databases and nothing else. For that reason, not only is the overall performance better, but the cluster capacity is also infinite due to the fact that we can add more machines anytime if necessary. In this way your Internet sites can keep expanding without restrictions. You could import or export any database regardless of its size via the Hepsia hosting CP and the phpMyAdmin tool, which you can use to handle your databases. If you need support, you could always take a look at our instructional videos or make contact with our support representatives who will assist you with any database-related questions within the hour.

You will not have any issues with the size of your MySQL databases in case you have a semi-dedicated server through us due to the fact that different from many other website hosting service providers, we do not run everything on 1 server. Instead, we use a cloud platform, so an entire cluster of servers is dedicated to handling the databases of our customers. When more power or space is required, we can easily attach more servers or hard disks to the cluster, so the disk space is virtually limitless. With our services, you could grow your Internet sites or popularize them as much as you want without worrying that your MySQL databases will expand too much. Irrespective of the size of a particular database, you'll be able to export or import it easily via your hosting Control Panel.
