InnoDB is a popular database storage engine for the MySQL DBMS. It is an alternative to the default MyISAM engine and it has got many upsides that make it the engine of choice for lots of PHP script-powered software apps, such as Magento and Joomla™, which have switched over to InnoDB for good. For instance, importing large amounts of data will be faster with InnoDB, as it locks only a single database row to execute a specific operation, not the entire database table, which makes the engine ideal for scalable applications. InnoDB also supports foreign keys and transactions – these refer to the manner in which the data is tackled. Simply put, adding new or modifying existing data will either be thoroughly completed, or will be aborted and the operation will be rolled back in case a given problem occurs during the process, thus the content that remains in the database won’t be damaged.

InnoDB in Web Hosting

Every script-powered software app that requires InnoDB will function flawlessly on our cutting-edge cloud hosting platform and the MySQL database storage engine is available with all our web hosting plans. Every time you create a MySQL database manually or our app installer tool creates one automatically and an app installation process is started, the engine that the database in question will use will be selected on the basis of the app’s prerequisites without the need to modify any setting in your shared account. InnoDB will be selected automatically for any application that requires this specific engine and you’ll be able to get the most out of its full capacity. We’ll carry out daily backups of your content, so in case you accidentally erase a MySQL database that is important to you or you overwrite a certain part of it, we’ll be able to restore the database the way it was just a couple of hours ago.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

InnoDB is offered with each of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting by default, so as soon as you get a new account, you can go ahead and activate any script-based application that requires this particular MySQL database storage engine. A few engines are installed on our cloud web hosting platform, so when you create a new database and begin installing an application manually, or decide to take advantage of the Hepsia Control Panel-integrated app installer, the engine for the database will be chosen based on the specific app’s requirements. This will permit you to activate and manage InnoDB-specific applications without needing to cope with any obstacle and without needing to modify any settings in your semi-dedicated account. To take no chances, we will always keep a seven-day-old backup of all your databases, so if you delete or edit any content accidentally, we can swiftly restore it.

InnoDB in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Our Hepsia hosting Control Panel is one of the features that you can select on the server order page when you buy a dedicated server from our company. As this is the most powerful kind of hosting, it’s quite likely that you’ll run popular websites that will draw a lot of people, and since InnoDB is one of the best options for such websites, we will install it along with all the other software applications that are available with a Hepsia-managed dedicated server. If you set up a brand-new database in your dedicated server account, there won’t be any activated database storage engine till you start installing an open-source script, whether manually via your Internet browser or using the automatic scripts installer tool that is integrated into the Control Panel. The needed engine will be recognized automatically and will be set for the database in question, so you can use scripts that need InnoDB, as well as ones that require the default MySQL engine – MyISAM, without any predicaments.
