If you use a script-driven platform for your site, it stores its data inside a database and the bigger the site gets, the more info it stores. As an illustration, if you start an electronic store, the size of the database that the e-commerce script employs will increase when you add more items. The same applies for a forum script - the more users which register and the more responses they post, the bigger the database. If your websites gain popularity or you just want to add more content, this can become a problem if your Internet hosting account has limited database space for storage. What the particular effect of hitting the limit will be depends on the script - the Internet site can work correctly, but you may not be able to include any new info; the site can be shown with errors; or, in the worst scenario, the whole site may simply go offline.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers
Because our semi-dedicated server accounts work with an advanced cloud platform, we can afford to provide unlimited storage space for the MySQL databases created inside any such account without compromising the quality of the service. Quite the contrary, the efficiency is improved, as an entire cluster of machines handles only MySQL queries and nothing else. We can easily keep growing the cluster storage and the processing power by putting in new web servers and hard drives, so you'll never be limited when it comes to the size of any of your databases. You can freely export or import any MySQL database using the phpMyAdmin tool inside your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel or you may ask our technicians to aid you with this task if you have no previous experience and you are not sure how to handle it.
