InnoDB is a popular database engine for MySQL. It is an alternative to the default engine – MyISAM, and it has got plenty of strong sides that make it the engine of choice for a lot of PHP script-based apps, such as Joomla™ and Magento, which have moved to InnoDB for good. For instance, adding large volumes of data will be much faster with InnoDB, due to the fact that it locks only one database row to execute a given operation, not the entire database table, which makes the engine excellent for scalable apps. It also supports foreign keys and transactions – these refer to the manner in which the info is treated. To put it simply, adding new or updating existent data will either be fully completed, or will be annulled and the operation will be rolled back in case a certain problem appears during the process, thus the content that remains in the database won’t be damaged.

InnoDB in Website Hosting

You will be able to install any open-source script-powered software application that requires InnoDB in case you’ve got a Linux website hosting package with our company, as the database engine is present on our innovative cloud website hosting platform by default. Throughout the app activation – manual or automatic, InnoDB will be selected as the default engine and the setup process will proceed flawlessly in case this engine is needed. You can activate applications that require the MyISAM engine without any difficulties as well and, once again, the engine will be pre-selected, so you will not need to edit anything manually at any moment. What’s more, we’ll also create daily backups of all the MySQL databases that you’ve got in the account, so in case you erase or overwrite anything, we can swiftly get it back to the way it was on any of the past seven days.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you set up a new MySQL database from the hosting Control Panel provided with each of our semi-dedicated server accounts and you start installing a PHP script-powered app either manually or using our single-click application installer tool, the database storage engine will be set automatically depending on the requirements of the given app. Since InnoDB is present on the cloud website hosting platform where your new semi-dedicated server account will be set up, it will be set as the default engine for each application that requires it without the need for any manual intervention on your end at any point. To avoid any chance of losing info if you update an app or if you erase a database by accident, we will perform a backup of all your databases each and every day, so if something happens, we can restore your content.

InnoDB in VPS Hosting

All Linux VPS hosting packages that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with InnoDB already activated, so you’ll be able to take advantage of any script-based app that requires the MySQL database storage engine without installing anything manually. You can choose Hepsia on the VPS order form and your new VPS server will be ready within the hour, so you can sign in and start building your websites straight away. Once you create a brand-new MySQL database and start the app installation process, our system will set the engine for this database automatically. In this way, you can activate various apps simultaneously without the need to edit anything on the VPS server. You can set up a WordPress-based weblog that uses the default MySQL engine – MyISAM, and a Magento-based e-shop that uses the InnoDB engine, for instance.

InnoDB in Dedicated Web Hosting

InnoDB comes by default with all Linux dedicated servers hosting packages ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. It is part of the software package that we install on all Hepsia-equipped dedicated servers, so once your machine is ready, you’ll be able to log in and to activate any type of script-powered application that requires this particular MySQL database engine. When you create a new MySQL database through the hosting Control Panel, there won’t be any active engine until you begin installing an application. Once the app activation wizard begins dumping information in the database, the engine will be picked automatically in accordance with the requirements of the particular app, so you can use both MyISAM and InnoDB without the need to select either of them explicitly at any time. In this way, you can make use of an extensive collection of applications for your sites.
