InnoDB is a storage engine for MySQL relational databases, which is used by well known open-source script-based applications such as Magento and Joomla™ 3. It’s perfect for scalable apps, since it performs astonishingly well when processing enormous amounts of data. Rather than locking the whole table to insert new information in a database like many other engines do, InnoDB locks only one row, so it can handle a lot more tasks for the same length of time. Moreover, InnoDB offers a much faster database failure recovery and supports database transactions and foreign keys – rules that prescribe how data imports and modifications should be treated. If a certain task hasn’t been fully completed for whatever reason, the action will be rolled back. In this way, the information in the database will stay safe and sound and won’t be partially mixed with newly entered content.

InnoDB in Cloud Website Hosting

InnoDB is offered with all our Linux cloud website hosting services by default, not as a paid upgrade or upon request, so you can install and run any open-source script-powered software app which needs the database engine without encountering any obstacle as soon as you open your shared account. InnoDB will be pre-selected as the default engine for a given database during the app installation, no matter if you make use of our 1-click installation tool or create the MySQL database and install the app manually, on the condition that the app requires it instead of the more popular MyISAM engine. We will carry out regular backups of all your databases, so you can be sure that you won’t ever lose any content if you erase a database accidentally or you overwrite some key info – you simply need to get in touch with us and we will restore the database the way it was.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our semi-dedicated hosting support InnoDB and you’ll be able to use all the options offered by this database engine with any script-powered software app that requires it. InnoDB is one of the engines that we have on our cloud hosting platform, so the one that will be used depends on the requirements of the particular application. You will not have to do anything manually in order to enable InnoDB, as it will be set as the default engine when you install an application – whether manually or using our one-click application installer. To be on the safe side, we’ll carry out regular backups of all your databases, so if something goes wrong following an upgrade or if you remove some content by accident, we’ll be able to get the database back to the way it was on any of the past seven days.

InnoDB in VPS Web Hosting

All Linux VPS web hosting that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with InnoDB already activated, so you’ll be able to run any open-source script-driven app that needs this particular storage engine without having to set up anything manually. You can pick Hepsia on the VPS order page and your new server will be ready within 1 hour, so you can log in and begin creating your Internet sites straight away. Once you set up a brand-new MySQL database and start the app activation process, our system will select the engine for that database automatically. Thus, you can install different applications at the same time without having to configure anything on the server. You can set up a WordPress-driven blog that uses MyISAM – the default MySQL engine, and a Magento-powered e-commerce portal that makes use of InnoDB, for instance.

InnoDB in Dedicated Servers Hosting

All Linux dedicated hosting services that are ordered with our custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel come with a software bundle that is pre-installed and among everything else, you’ll get the InnoDB database engine, so you won’t need to install it manually if you need to activate open-source scripts that require it. All it takes to run such a script is to set up a new MySQL database and to initiate the installation – once the script installation wizard accesses the database and begins inserting data into it, InnoDB will be set as the default engine for this database as long as it is the one needed by the particular script. You will also be able to activate scripts that need MyISAM – the other widely used MySQL engine, so you will not need to edit any settings on the dedicated server. This will enable you to activate a variety of scripts on one single physical server and to use the latter to its full potential.
