Disk Space
What is disk space? What is its place inside the Internet hosting world?
Every time you upload data on a web hosting server, it takes some storage space on the hard drive depending on its overall size. In case you operate a script-driven website which saves its information in a database, it will need more space, the more people use it. To give an example, if you have a discussion board, the greater number of responses people share, the bigger the database will get. Email messages, particularly ones with attachments, also need some disk space in the website hosting account. The disk space quota you will get with each shared web hosting supplier is the total amount of info you can have at any given moment, it includes website files, email messages and databases. Similarly, a home computer has a hdd and the computer software installed on it together with all docs and music files that you create or download require some storage, which cannot surpass the total capacity of the hard drive.
Disk Space in Shared Web Hosting
Our shared web hosting plans were developed with the idea that not sufficient storage space shouldn't be something that will obstruct the growth of your sites. For that reason we've taken a technique which is distinct from the one that most web hosting companies apply - rather than creating all the accounts on a single server and subsequently running out of hard disk space, we employ a cloud hosting platform in which the storage is taken care of by a whole group of servers. In this way, we're able to add more machines if they are necessary and more hard drives, in order to provide more disk space for the files of our customers. Separate clusters manage your e-mail messages as well as the databases, therefore not only will you be able to enhance your web sites without worrying about hdd space, but also all of the servers will operate better and faster as every single service has its own storage space and one server doesn't handle different types of files.
