The disk space function displays the overall volume of info that you'll be able to have on a cloud web hosting server at any time. With a desktop computer, for example, this is the size of a single hdd or the full size of all the hard disks in the event that the PC has more than just a single one. The same way that the space on a PC is shared between installed programs, documents, music and the like, the server hdd space is usually divided between site files, databases and email messages. Each file, folder and email message will take a little storage space on your server, and that means you should take into consideration various factors, not just the size of the files that you will upload. For instance, having sizeable e-mail attachments or running a script-driven internet site in which the user-generated content material is saved in a database will also affect the space you are using.
Disk Space in Cloud Web Hosting
We've designed our Linux cloud web hosting packages with the idea that the hdd storage won't be a setback for your sites. While many website hosting suppliers create accounts using a single server, and as a matter of fact, the most popular Control Panels are intended to operate solely on this kind of platform, we've used a completely different approach. We have clusters of servers that control each aspect of the web hosting service, which means that your files will be stored on a single cluster, your emails on another,your databases on a third one, etc. Using this cloud platform we accomplish two things - the hdd space is virtually endless due to the fact that we're able install as many servers and hard drives to our clusters as required, and we improve the overall effectiveness of each machine since just one type of system processes will run on it. This custom-built setup will allow you to extend your websites as you see fit without having to worry about running out of hard disk space.
