InnoDB is a very popular database storage engine for MySQL. It’s an alternative to the default MyISAM engine and it has numerous pluses which make it the engine of choice for lots of PHP script-powered software applications, among them Joomla™ and Magento, which have switched to InnoDB permanently. For example, importing huge amounts of data will be faster with InnoDB, due to the fact that it locks only one row to complete an operation, not the entire table, which makes the engine excellent for scalable applications. It also supports foreign keys and database transactions – these refer to the manner in which the information is treated. Simply put, importing new or modifying existent data will either be entirely completed, or will be canceled and the operation will be rolled back in case some problem occurs during the process, which is why the content that remains in the database will not be lost.

InnoDB in Cloud Hosting

Every PHP-based application that needs InnoDB will function impeccably on our avant-garde cloud platform and the MySQL storage engine comes with all our cloud hosting plans. Every time you create a database manually or our app installer tool creates one automatically and an app installation process is started, the engine that the database will make use of will be selected on the basis of the app’s prerequisites without the need to modify any setting in your hosting account. InnoDB will be chosen automatically for any app that requires this particular engine and you will be able to make the most of its full potential. We’ll store daily content backups, so in case you accidentally delete a MySQL database that you need or you overwrite some part of it, we will be able to restore everything the way it was only a few hours ago.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can run an open-source script-driven web application that needs InnoDB with all of our semi-dedicated server plans, due to the fact that all the accounts are created on our advanced cloud hosting platform where the database storage engine is installed. A new database can be set up in two ways – manually through the Database Manager section of the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, or automatically – when you use our single-click app installer. In either case, the required engine will be chosen automatically the moment the installation of the application begins, so you won’t have to edit anything manually, no matter if the app requires InnoDB or the more frequently used MyISAM. Furthermore, we’ll always be able to retrieve any of your databases in case you unintentionally remove one, as we create a couple of MySQL database backups every day, each of which is stored for one week.

InnoDB in VPS Web Hosting

If you acquire a virtual private server from our company, you will be able to take advantage of our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel to manage your content. A Hepsia-equipped Virtual Private Server will permit you to run any PHP script-powered software app which needs InnoDB, as this MySQL database storage engine is an integral part of the standard software package that will be installed on the Virtual Private Server during its setup. When you set up a brand-new MySQL database through the hosting Control Panel, you will simply have to begin installing an application – manually or using our application installer. InnoDB will be set as the default engine on the condition that the app in question requires it, so you will not have to do anything else in your VPS account. Likewise, if an application requires MyISAM, it will be automatically set as the default engine for this concrete MySQL database.

InnoDB in Dedicated Servers Hosting

InnoDB is included by default with all dedicated hosting services that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. It’s an integral part of the standard software bundle that will be pre-installed on all Hepsia-equipped servers, so once your machine is assembled, you will be able to sign in and to install a various open-source script-powered software application that needs this database storage engine. When you set up a new MySQL database through the hosting Control Panel, there won’t be any activated engine until you begin installing an app. As soon as the app configuration wizard starts importing data into the database, the engine will be selected automatically based on the respective app’s requirements, so you can use both MyISAM and InnoDB without the need to select either one of them specifically at any point. Thus, you can make use of an extensive selection of applications for your websites.
