InnoDB is a very popular database engine for the MySQL RDBMS. It’s an alternative to the default engine – MyISAM, and it has many pluses that have made it the engine of choice for numerous open-source script-driven software apps, such as Magento and Joomla™, which have moved to InnoDB for good. For instance, adding huge amounts of data will be much faster with InnoDB, due to the fact that it locks only one database row to perform a specific task, not the entire database table, which makes the engine perfect for scalable applications. InnoDB also supports foreign keys and transactions – these refer to the manner in which the information is treated. Simply put, appending new or editing existing data will either be entirely completed, or will be canceled and the procedure will be rolled back if a given issue occurs during the process, thus the content that remains in the database will not be damaged.

InnoDB in Cloud Web Hosting

Every script-powered app that requires InnoDB will function flawlessly on our advanced cloud platform and the storage engine is available with all our cloud web hosting packages. Whenever you create a database manually or our app installer creates one automatically and an app installation is started, the engine that the database will use will be selected in accordance with the app’s requirements without having to change any setting in your shared account. InnoDB will be chosen automatically for any app that requires this specific engine and you will be able to make the most of its full capacity. We will keep regular content backups, so in case you unintentionally delete a database that’s important to you or you overwrite a certain part of it, we’ll be able to restore your content the way it was only a few hours ago.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you set up a brand new MySQL database from the Control Panel provided with all our semi-dedicated server packages and you begin installing a script-powered web app either manually or using our 1-click application installer tool, the MySQL database storage engine will be selected automatically based on the prerequisites of the given app. As InnoDB is available on the cloud website hosting platform where your new account will be created, it will be set as the default engine for each app that requires it without any manual intervention needed on your end at any point. To avoid any risk of losing info if you update an app or if you erase a database by accident, we’ll make a backup of all your MySQL databases each day, so if something happens, we can recover your content.

InnoDB in VPS Servers

All VPS plans that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with InnoDB pre-installed, so you’ll be able to run any PHP-driven software app that requires this particular storage engine without configuring anything manually. You can pick Hepsia on the VPS order page and your brand new server will be set up within the hour, so you can log in and start setting up your Internet sites straight away. When you create a brand-new MySQL database and start the app activation process, our system will set the engine for that MySQL database automatically. Thus, you can run various apps at the same time without having to edit anything on the server. You can have a WordPress-driven personal journal that makes use of the default MySQL engine – MyISAM, and a Magento-based web store that uses the InnoDB engine, for instance.

InnoDB in Dedicated Servers

Our Hepsia hosting Control Panel is among the features which you can select on the server order page when you buy a dedicated server from us. As this is the most powerful kind of hosting, it’s very likely that you will run very popular sites that will draw many individuals, and since InnoDB is one of the best choices for such sites, we’ll activate it together with all the other software apps that are available with a Hepsia-managed server. If you set up a brand new MySQL database in your account, there won’t be any active storage engine till you begin installing an open-source PHP script, whether manually through your web browser or using the automatic script installation tool that is included in the hosting Control Panel. The necessary engine will be recognized and will be assigned to that database, so you can activate scripts that need InnoDB, as well as ones that need MyISAM – the default MySQL engine, without having to deal with any difficulty.
