PostgreSQL Database Storage

Understand how PostgreSQL database storage operates and the reasons why you will need this feature in your own web hosting account.

In case you use a database-driven script application for your site, all the content that you or the site users add, is saved in cells and tables within a database, not as plain text in the application files. In contrast, HTML websites are static and all the content on such a site is a part of the actual HTML files. A web store application, for example, takes all the prices, items, user reviews, etc, from its database and this is the same for any kind of script that allows you to make a dynamic site. The more the information you add, the larger the database will get, so in case you employ a script-driven site, you should make sure that your web hosting package comes with adequate database storage space. The latter applies no matter what kind of databases you employ - for instance MySQL or PostgreSQL.

PostgreSQL Database Storage in Cloud Web Hosting

A number of the cloud web hosting that we provide are excellent for hosting websites that need a PostgreSQL database to function as they contain unlimited database storage. Using all of these plans, you're able to create and run any sort of PostgreSQL-driven script app and take advantage of a quick and reliable website hosting service. We are able to offer unrestricted database storage because we don't run everything on one and the same server. Instead, all the PostgreSQL databases are handled by an independent cluster, which is a part of our tailor-made cloud website hosting platform, so that we will always put additional hard disk drives or entire servers to the cluster when needed. With our shared hosting services, you won't ever have to worry that the growth of your sites will be reduced because of the low space for your databases.

PostgreSQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you get one of our semi-dedicated servers, you'll be able to run PostgreSQL websites without having to worry that you'll reach any kind of restriction for the size of your databases, since there isn't such a restriction. When you use our cloud website hosting platform, a dedicated group of servers takes care of your databases, which means that when additional processing power or database storage space is needed at any time, we simply add extra servers or hard drives. In contrast to many other providers, we do not manage everything on a single server. All of our plans are powerful and allow you to operate heavy, resource-consuming websites, so we've made sure that the PostgreSQL database storage space attribute matches the rest of the characteristics. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel which comes with the semi-dedicated accounts will allow you to check out the size of each PostgreSQL database that you have in addition to the overall size of all databases, but these numbers are accessible exclusively for your information.
