InnoDB is a MySQL database storage engine, which has been gaining in popularity lately, as it offers a much better overall performance and an improved crash recovery compared with the default engine used by the MySQL relational database management system – MyISAM. InnoDB is preferred by many programmers that run highly scalable web apps, as it works better with large amounts of data, while it keeps the server load at a minimum. Furthermore, it locks only a single database row in case any info should be modified, while many other engines lock the entire database table and therefore require more time to execute multiple consecutive tasks. Last, but not least, InnoDB complies with the "all-or-nothing" rule – in case the modification of the entire data cannot be completed for some reason, the action is rolled back to avoid scrambling or losing data. Magento and the newest editions of Joomla™ are two instances of widely used open-source script-based software platforms which have moved to InnoDB.

InnoDB in Website Hosting

Any PHP script-driven software app that needs InnoDB will run flawlessly on our cutting-edge cloud platform and the database storage engine is available with all our website hosting packages. Every time you create a database manually or our app installer creates one automatically and an app installation is initiated, the engine that the database will use will be selected in accordance with the app’s specifications without the need to configure any setting in your shared web hosting account. InnoDB will be selected automatically for any app that requires this specific engine and you’ll be able to make the most of its full potential. We will create daily backups of your content, so if you unintentionally delete a MySQL database that’s important to you or you overwrite some part of it, we’ll be able to restore your database the way it was only a couple of hours earlier.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our Linux semi-dedicated hosting support InnoDB and you will be able to take advantage of all the options offered by this database engine with any PHP script-based app that requires it. It’s one of the engines that are available on our cloud web hosting platform, so the one that will be used depends on the requirements of the specific app. You won’t need to do anything manually in order to activate InnoDB, as it will be set as the default engine when you install an app – whether manually or using our 1-click app installer. To avoid any risk, we’ll store regular database backups, so if something goes wrong following some update or if you erase some content by accident, we will be able to get the database back to the way it was on any of the previous seven days.

InnoDB in VPS Hosting

All Linux VPS hosting services that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with InnoDB already activated, so you will be able to make use of any script-based application that requires this particular storage engine without needing to activate anything manually. You can choose Hepsia on the VPS order page and your brand-new VPS server will be up and running within the hour, so you can log in and begin building your websites right away. When you create a new MySQL database and start the app installation process, our system will choose the engine for this MySQL database automatically. Thus, you can activate different apps simultaneously without configuring anything on the server. You can set up a WordPress-powered online journal that makes use of the default MySQL engine – MyISAM, and a Magento e-commerce website that uses the InnoDB engine, for instance.

InnoDB in Dedicated Web Hosting

InnoDB is available as standard with all dedicated web hosting ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. It’s an integral part of the default software bundle that will be pre-installed on all Hepsia-managed servers, so once your physical machine is set up, you will be able to sign in and to activate any type of script-based software application that needs this MySQL database storage engine. If you set up a new database through the Control Panel, there won’t be any active engine till you start installing an app. As soon as the app configuration wizard begins entering content into the database, the engine will be picked automatically depending on the requirements of the given app, so you can run both InnoDB and MyISAM without the need to select either one specifically at any time. Therefore, you can make use of an immense variety of apps for your websites.
