InnoDB is a database storage engine for MySQL databases, which is used by famous open-source script-driven software applications like Magento and Joomla™ 3. It is perfect for scalable applications, because it works exceptionally well when handling enormous amounts of data. Instead of locking the whole database table to insert new information in a database as many other engines do, InnoDB locks only one row, so it can handle much more tasks for the same length of time. Moreover, InnoDB offers an improved crash recovery and supports transactions and foreign key constraints – rules that specify how data inserts and modifications should be handled. In case a specific task has not been thoroughly completed for any reason, the action will be rolled back. Thus, the information in the database will stay intact and won’t be partially merged with newly entered content.

InnoDB in Website Hosting

Any script-driven application that requires InnoDB will run impeccably on our avant-garde cloud web hosting platform and the database storage engine is offered with all our website hosting plans. Each time you create a MySQL 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 on the basis of the app’s prerequisites without having to modify any setting in your account. InnoDB will be picked automatically for any app that requires this specific engine and you’ll be able to get the most out of its full capacity. We will maintain daily backups of your content, so if you accidentally remove a MySQL database that you need or you overwrite a certain part of it, we’ll be able to restore your data the way it was just a couple of hours earlier.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you create a new MySQL database from the Control Panel coming with all our semi-dedicated server accounts and you start installing a PHP script-driven application either manually or using our single-click app installer tool, the MySQL database storage engine will be set automatically based on the given app’s prerequisites. Since InnoDB is available on the cloud web hosting platform where your new semi-dedicated server account will be set up, it will be set as the default engine for each app that needs it without the need for any manual action on your end at any time. To avoid any risk of losing info if you update an app or if you erase a database accidentally, we’ll carry out backups of all your databases every day, so if anything happens, we can retrieve your data.

InnoDB in VPS Hosting

When you buy a virtual private server from our company, you’ll be able to take advantage of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel to manage your web content. A Hepsia-managed Virtual Private Server will allow you to use any script-powered application which requires InnoDB, as the database engine is an integral part of the standard software package that will be installed on the VPS server during its configuration. When you create a brand new database using the Control Panel, you’ll simply have to begin installing an application – manually or using our application installer tool. InnoDB will be set as the default engine if the application in question needs it, so you won’t have to do anything else in your account. Identically, if a certain application requires MyISAM, it will be automatically set as the default engine for this concrete MySQL database.

InnoDB in Dedicated Web Hosting

All dedicated web hosting that are ordered with our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with a software bundle that is pre-activated and besides everything else, you’ll get the InnoDB database engine, so you won’t need to install it manually if you wish to run open-source PHP scripts that require it. All it takes to install such a script is to set up a new MySQL database and to start the setup – as soon as the script installation wizard accesses the database and begins entering content into it, InnoDB will be set as the default MySQL engine for this database on the condition that it is the one needed by the particular script. You will also be able to install scripts that need MyISAM – the other popular MySQL engine, so you will not have to change any settings on the server. This will allow you to use a variety of scripts on one single server and to use the latter to its fullest potential.
