If you work with a database-driven script app for your site, all the content that you or the site users add, is saved in cells and tables within a database, not as ordinary text in the app files. In comparison, HTML sites are static and all the content on such a website is part of the actual HTML files. An online store application, for example, takes all prices, items, user reviews, etc, from its database and this is valid for any kind of script which allows you to make a dynamic site. The more the info you include, the larger the database will get, so when you use a script-driven website, you need to make sure that your web hosting package includes adequate database storage space. The aforementioned applies regardless of what kind of databases you use - for example MySQL or PostgreSQL.
PostgreSQL Database Storage in Shared Hosting
All our Linux shared hosting were created with the notion to give you the option to select the optimal features depending on the type of websites you need to host. If you don't need PostgreSQL databases, for example, you can choose a package that doesn't come with this system by default. In case you change your opinion any time later or if you want PostgreSQL from the beginning, you can always select one of the plans that feature PostgreSQL support. All of the plans provide sufficient storage space dedicated to your databases, therefore even if your websites get bigger, you will not encounter any problems, since some plans come even with unrestricted space. For the lower-end plans, the PostgreSQL storage will be upgraded with just a few clicks through the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel.
PostgreSQL Database Storage in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you get one of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting plans, you will be able to manage PostgreSQL websites without worrying that you will get to any restriction for the size of your databases, because there isn't such a limit. When you use our cloud website hosting platform, a dedicated group of servers manages the databases, so when additional computing power or database storage space is needed at any moment, we simply install additional servers or hard disk drives. In contrast to other providers, we don't run everything on a single server. All our plans are quite powerful and allow you to operate heavy, resource-demanding sites, so we've ensured that the PostgreSQL database storage space feature matches the rest of the capabilities. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel which is included with the semi-dedicated accounts allows you to view the size of any PostgreSQL database that you have and even the full size of all of the databases, but these numbers are available exclusively for your own information.
