InnoDB is a MySQL database storage engine, which has been gaining popularity in recent years, because it offers a much better overall performance and an improved crash recovery compared with the default engine that is used by the MySQL database management system – MyISAM. InnoDB is preferred by a lot of web developers that run highly scalable software applications, as it works much more efficiently with immense volumes of data, while it keeps the server load low. Also, it it locks only one row in the database if any info should be updated, whereas lots of other engines lock the entire table and therefore require more time to handle multiple successive tasks. Last, but not least, InnoDB obeys the "all-or-nothing" rule – in case the entire data modification cannot be completed successfully for some reason, the operation is rolled back to avoid scrambling or the loss of data. Magento and the newest Joomla™ releases are two instances of widespread script-powered software applications that have shifted over to InnoDB.

InnoDB in Hosting

You will be able to make use of any open-source script-driven web app that requires InnoDB if you have a hosting with our company, as the MySQL database storage engine is present on our cutting-edge cloud hosting platform by default. During the app installation – manual or automatic, InnoDB will be selected as the default engine and the setup will continue impeccably if this engine is needed. You can activate applications which need the MyISAM engine without encountering any impediment as well and, once again, the engine will be selected automatically, so you won’t have to change any setting manually at any point. In addition, we’ll also perform daily backups of all the MySQL databases that you have in your shared hosting account, so in case you delete or overwrite anything, we can easily get it back to the way it was on any of the previous 7 days.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

InnoDB comes with all our Linux semi-dedicated hosting by default, so the moment you order a new account, you can move on and install any PHP script-based app that needs this storage engine. Several engines are installed on our cloud platform, so when you create a brand-new MySQL database and start installing an app manually, or decide to use the Hepsia hosting Control Panel-integrated app installer, the engine for the database will be picked based on the requirements of the specific app. This will permit you to activate and manage InnoDB-specific applications without any problems and without changing any settings in your account. To be on the safe side, we will always keep a seven-day-old backup of all your databases, so if you remove or change any content accidentally, we can swiftly restore it.

InnoDB in VPS

When you order a virtual private server from our company, you will be able to take full advantage of our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel to manage your web content. A Hepsia-managed Virtual Private Server will allow you to use any PHP-based software app that requires InnoDB, as this particular MySQL database engine is part of the default software package that will be pre-installed on the Virtual Private Server during its creation. When you create a new MySQL database using the hosting Control Panel, you will simply need to start installing an app – manually or using our application installer. InnoDB will be set as the default engine in case the app in question needs it, so you will not need 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 database.

InnoDB in Dedicated Hosting

InnoDB is included by default with all dedicated hosting services ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. It’s an essential part of the standard software bundle that will be pre-installed on all Hepsia-managed dedicated servers, so once your physical machine is up and running, you will be able to sign in and to activate any kind of script-driven app that needs this particular MySQL database storage engine. When you create a new database through the Control Panel, there won’t be any activated engine till you begin installing an application. Once the app configuration wizard begins inserting data into the newly created database, the engine will be picked automatically on the basis of the particular app’s requirements, so you can run both MyISAM and InnoDB without having to select either one explicitly at any time. In this way, you can make use of an immense variety of apps for your Internet sites.
