Compared with a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual pages of the site, any script-driven site stores all its info in a database. Just a couple of examples of such websites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart e-commerce portal - in both cases, product or service listings, selling prices, blog posts, user responses and so on are collected in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the info you add, the larger the database gets and if your website hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database could have, your website may not function properly after you hit that limit. The results can range from not being able to add new info to improperly functioning website or even the site displaying nothing but error messages and not being available at all.

MySQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Hosting
The semi-dedicated hosting we offer you use a custom cloud platform in which the files, databases and e-mail messages are managed by their own clusters of web servers. In other words, when you use this kind of plan, you will no longer need to worry about the size of your databases for the reason that there is practically no restriction for the database space - we may keep adding as many HDDs or entire web servers to the cluster as required. Therefore, any MySQL-based web site that you host in the semi-dedicated account can easily develop without any limits. With the phpMyAdmin software instrument, which could be accessed from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will be able to import or export your databases with several clicks regardless how massive they are.
