Disk Space
What precisely is disk space? What is its place inside the web hosting world?
Whenever you upload a file on a web hosting server, it will need an amount of space on the hard disk drive dependent on its particular size. When you have a script-driven internet site which keeps its info in a database, it will need more space, the more people work with it. To give an example, in case you have a discussion board, the greater number of comments people write, the larger the database will be. Email messages, particularly ones which have attachments, also need some space in the website hosting account. The disk space quota you will get with each website hosting supplier is the full amount of data you can have at any given moment, it consists of web site files, email messages plus databases. Similarly, a home computer has a hdd and the software programs installed on it together with any documents and / or music files that you make or download take some storage, which cannot exceed the total capacity of the hard disk.
Disk Space in Website Hosting
We have created our Linux website hosting with the notion that the hard disk space shouldn't be an issue for your web sites. While many hosting providers make accounts using one server, and as a matter of fact, the most widespread Control Panels are designed to operate solely on such a platform, we have applied a completely different solution. We have clusters of servers that take care of every part of the hosting service, so that your files are stored on one cluster, your email on another,your databases on a third one, etcetera. On this cloud platform we achieve two things - the hdd space is virtually inexhaustible since we can easily attach as many servers and hard disk drives to the clusters as needed, and we boost the effectiveness of every machine because just a single type of processes will run on it. This custom setup will allow you to expand your websites as you see fit without worrying about not having enough hard drive storage.
