InnoDB is a very popular database engine for MySQL. It is an alternative to the default engine – MyISAM, and it has numerous advantages which have made it the preferred engine for numerous open-source script-powered apps, among them Magento and Joomla™, which have moved to InnoDB for good. For example, adding enormous data volumes will be faster with InnoDB, due to the fact that it locks only a single database row to perform a particular operation, not the entire table, which makes the engine excellent for scalable applications. It also supports foreign keys and transactions – these refer to the way in which the information is handled. In simpler words, importing new or editing existing data will either be entirely completed, or will be annulled and the procedure will be rolled back if a certain issue appears during the process, thus the content that remains in the database will not be damaged.

InnoDB in Cloud Hosting

Any PHP script-driven software app that needs InnoDB will function impeccably on our cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform and the MySQL database storage engine is offered with all our cloud hosting packages. Whenever you create a database manually or our app installer creates one automatically and an app installation is started, the engine that the database in question will use will be selected based on the app’s prerequisites without having to update any setting in your web hosting account. InnoDB will be chosen automatically for any application that requires this specific engine and you’ll be able to get the most out of its full capacity. We will generate daily content backups, so if you unintentionally 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 several hours earlier.

InnoDB in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you create a brand-new MySQL database from the Control Panel offered with each of our semi-dedicated server plans and you begin installing a PHP script-powered web application either manually or using our single-click app installer, the database storage engine will be picked automatically depending on the particular app’s requirements. Since InnoDB is available on the cloud hosting platform where your new account will be set up, it will be set as the default engine for any application that requires it without any manual action required on your end at any time. To prevent any risk of losing data if you update an app or if you erase a database accidentally, we will make a backup of all your databases each and every day, so if anything goes wrong, we can rescue your content.

InnoDB in VPS Hosting

If you acquire a virtual private server from us, you will be able to take full advantage of our in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel to manage your web content. A Hepsia-managed VPS will allow you to activate any PHP-based app which requires InnoDB, as the storage engine is included in the default software package that will be installed on the VPS server during its setup. When you create a brand new database using the Control Panel, you will simply have to begin installing an app – manually or using our application installer tool. InnoDB will be set as the default engine on the condition that the app in question requires it, so you won’t need to do anything else in your VPS account. Likewise, if a certain application requires MyISAM, it will be automatically set as the default engine for this concrete database.

InnoDB in Dedicated Web Hosting

Our Hepsia hosting Control Panel is among the features that you can pick on the order page when you purchase a dedicated server from us. Since this is the most powerful type of web hosting, it’s pretty likely that you’ll manage very popular Internet sites that will draw many people, and since InnoDB is among the very best options for such sites, we’ll activate it along with all the other software apps that are available with a Hepsia-managed dedicated server. When you set up a new MySQL database in your dedicated server account, there won’t be any activated MySQL storage engine till you begin installing a PHP script, whether manually via your Internet browser or using the automatic scripts installer tool that is integrated into the hosting Control Panel. The required engine will be automatically detected and will be assigned to the database in question, so you can install scripts that require InnoDB, as well as ones that need the default MySQL engine – MyISAM, without needing to deal with any obstacle.
