Disk Space
Learn what "disk space" means in the realm of hosting and what is the proper disk space quota for your requirements.
Every time you upload a file on a web hosting server, it will need an amount of space on the hdd depending on its overall size. In the event that you manage a script-driven website which stores its data in a database, it will take more disk space, the more people work with it. For instance, in case you have a discussion forum, the more comments people write, the bigger the database gets. Email messages, especially ones using attachments, also require some disk space in the site hosting account. The disk space quota that you get with your cloud website hosting provider is the total amount of info you can have at any moment, and this contains website files, e-mail messages as well as databases. Similarly, a PC has a hdd and the software programs installed on it together with any docs or music files that you generate or download take some disk space, which cannot surpass the full capacity of the hard drive.
Disk Space in Cloud Website Hosting
We've designed our cloud website hosting plans with the idea that the disk storage won't be a setback for your sites. While many web hosting companies create accounts on a single server, and in fact, the most famous Control Panels were made to work solely on this kind of platform, we have used a different approach. We have groups of servers that control every single element of the website hosting service, so that your files are stored on one cluster, your email on another one,the databases on a third one, etc. Using this cloud platform we accomplish a few things - the hard drive space is actually limitless as we can attach as many servers and hard drives to the clusters as required, and we enhance the effectiveness of every single machine as only one kind of system processes will operate on it. This custom-made setup will enable you to expand your web sites as you see fit without worrying about not having enough hard drive space.
