InnoDB is a MySQL database engine, which has been gaining popularity lately, because it provides a better overall performance and an improved crash recovery in comparison with the default engine that’s used by the MySQL database management system – MyISAM. InnoDB is endorsed by numerous programmers that build scalable applications, due to the fact that it works more effectively with huge amounts of data, while it keeps the server load at a minimum. Furthermore, it locks only one database row in case any info should be edited, while lots of other engines lock the entire table and therefore need much more time to execute several successive tasks. Last, but not least, InnoDB adheres to a set of "all-or-nothing" rules – if the modification of the entire data cannot be completed for whatever reason, the action is rolled back to avoid confusion or data loss. Magento and the newest Joomla™ versions are two instances of widely used PHP script-based web applications that have switched to InnoDB.

InnoDB in Website Hosting

Every PHP script-driven app that requires InnoDB will run impeccably on our avant-garde cloud hosting platform and the MySQL storage engine is available with all our website hosting packages. Whenever you create a database manually or our app installer tool creates one automatically and an app installation process is initiated, the engine that the database will make use of will be selected on the basis of the app’s requirements without having to edit any setting in your shared web hosting account. InnoDB will be picked automatically for any app that requires this particular engine and you’ll be able to make the most of its full potential. We’ll carry out regular content backups, so if you accidentally erase a database that’s important to you or you overwrite some part of it, we’ll be able to restore everything the way it was just a couple of hours ago.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

InnoDB is available with all our semi-dedicated hosting services by default, so as soon as you purchase a new semi-dedicated account, you can go ahead and install any PHP script-based app that needs this MySQL database engine. A number of engines are pre-installed on our cloud platform, so when you create a new database and start installing an application manually, or opt to use the Hepsia Control Panel-integrated application installer tool, the engine for the database will be set depending on the concrete app’s prerequisites. This will allow you to install and run InnoDB-specific applications without needing to deal with any obstacle and without needing to edit any settings in your semi-dedicated account. To be on the safe side, we’ll always have a 7-day-old backup of all your MySQL databases, so if you erase or alter any content unintentionally, we can quickly restore it.

InnoDB in VPS Hosting

All Linux VPS hosting that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel come with InnoDB already activated, so you’ll be able to run any PHP script-driven software application that needs the database storage engine without having to activate anything manually. You can select Hepsia on the VPS order page and your brand new Virtual Private Server will be ready within 60 minutes, so you can log in and start building your websites straight away. When you create a brand new MySQL database and begin the app activation process, our system will select the engine for this database automatically. In this way, you can install various applications at the same time without having to change anything on the server. You can create a WordPress personal blog that makes use of MyISAM – the default MySQL engine, and a Magento-powered e-commerce website that uses InnoDB, for instance.

InnoDB in Dedicated Web Hosting

Our Hepsia Control Panel is among the options that you can select on the server configuration page when you buy a dedicated server from our company. Since this is the most powerful type of website hosting, it’s rather likely that you’ll run very popular Internet sites that will attract lots of individuals, and since InnoDB is among the best choices for such sites, we’ll enable it along with all the other software applications that are available with a Hepsia-managed server. When you set up a new database in your account, there won’t be any active MySQL database storage engine till you begin installing a PHP script, whether manually through your browser or using the automatic scripts installation tool that is included in the hosting Control Panel. The necessary engine will be recognized and will be assigned to that database, so you can make use of scripts that need InnoDB, as well as ones that require the default MySQL engine, MyISAM, without the need to cope with any obstacle.
