PostgreSQL Database Storage
Find out how PostgreSQL database storage works and the reasons you need this feature with your web hosting account.
When you work with a database-driven script application for your website, all of the content that you or the site users add, will be saved in cells and tables inside a database, not as ordinary text in the app files. In comparison, HTML websites are static and all the content on such a site is a part of the actual HTML files. A web store application, for example, pulls all the prices, items, user reviews, etc, from its database and this is the same for any other script which allows you to create a dynamic website. The more the data you insert, the larger the database becomes, so in case you use a script-driven website, you need to make sure that your web hosting package comes with enough database storage space. The latter applies no matter what type of databases you employ - for example MySQL or PostgreSQL.

PostgreSQL Database Storage in Shared Hosting
If you select our
shared hosting services, you can increase the content and the user base of your PostgreSQL-driven websites as much as you want because some of our packages are provided with unlimited database storage space. Even if you purchase a lower-end plan, you will be able to upgrade either the database storage feature or the whole plan, to have enough resources for your websites. We use a custom cloud platform and we have an entire cluster dedicated to the database storage. Because no other processes run on these servers, the overall performance is better and we can easily put extra servers or hard disks if they are needed. No matter how many elements you include in your web store or how many comments people leave on your discussion forum, you'll never experience any problems because of insufficient database storage.

PostgreSQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our
semi-dedicated service are suitable to host any PostgreSQL-driven script application. One of the variations between the plans is in the number of databases and the storage space for them that you get, so as to offer you an option to choose the characteristics that you actually need. For a smaller-sized site, for instance, you don't need that many system resources, while for a large portal, a discussion forum with a large number of visitors or a web shop with a lot of items you can take full advantage of our top-end package that has unrestricted PostgreSQL database storage space. As all the accounts are created on a cloud web hosting platform, all the databases operate on an individual cluster and they don't share the resources with other types of files. In this way, we achieve two things - improved performance of script sites and virtually limitless database storage.
