InnoDB is a storage engine for MySQL relational databases, which is used by famous script-based apps like Joomla 3.x and Magento. It’s perfect for scalable apps, as it works very well when managing enormous data volumes. Instead of locking the whole database table to enter new information into a database like many other engines do, InnoDB locks only one database row, so it can perform much more operations for the same length of time. Besides, InnoDB offers a much faster database crash recovery and supports transactions and foreign keys – rules that specify how data inserts and modifications should be handled. In case a particular operation has not been entirely completed for some reason, the action will be rolled back. In this way, the content in the database will remain undamaged and won’t be partially mixed with new content.

InnoDB in Shared Web Hosting

Every script-driven software app that needs InnoDB will function impeccably on our advanced cloud platform and the MySQL database storage engine is available with all our shared web hosting packages. Each time you create a database manually or our app installer creates one automatically and an app installation process is started, the engine that the database will make use of will be selected based on the app’s prerequisites without having to modify any setting in your web hosting account. InnoDB will be selected automatically for any application that requires this particular engine and you’ll be able to get the most out of its full potential. We will store regular content backups, so if you accidentally erase a MySQL database that is important to you or you overwrite a specific part of it, we’ll be able to restore everything the way it was just a couple of hours earlier.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Servers

InnoDB comes with all our semi-dedicated hosting plans by default, so as soon as you get a new account, you can move on and install any open-source script-based app that needs the MySQL storage engine. A number of engines are pre-installed on our cloud platform, so when you set up a brand-new MySQL database and start installing an app manually, or decide to make use of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel-integrated app installer, the engine for the database will be selected in accordance with the prerequisites of the particular application. This will permit you to install and run InnoDB-specific apps without having to cope with any obstacle and without needing to configure any settings in your account. To be on the safe side, we’ll always have a one-week-old backup of all your MySQL databases, so if you delete or edit any content by mistake, we can easily restore it.

InnoDB in VPS Servers

If you pick a VPS server with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, the InnoDB database engine will be an essential part of the software package that will be installed on your server before we hand it over to you. You won’t need to configure anything manually and you’ll be able to enable and use any PHP script-based web application that needs InnoDB when your Virtual Private Server is ready, which takes no more than 60 minutes after the order submission procedure itself. A couple of engines are offered, so whenever you create a MySQL database through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, a particular engine will be activated when the app activation process begins and our system will recognize which engine is required by the application in question. If you need to use MyISAM, for example, you won’t have to do anything different from installing the desired application, whether manually or using our application installer tool.

InnoDB in Dedicated Servers

InnoDB comes as standard with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. It is an integral part of the standard software bundle that will be pre-installed on all Hepsia-equipped servers, so as soon as your machine is ready, you’ll be able to sign in and to install any kind of PHP-based software application that needs this particular MySQL database engine. When you set up a new database via the hosting Control Panel, there won’t be any activated engine till you begin installing an app. As soon as the app installation wizard starts entering content into the database, the engine will be picked automatically on the basis of the specific app’s prerequisites, so you can run both InnoDB and MyISAM without having to select either of them explicitly at any point. Thus, you can make use of a large collection of applications for your sites.
