The term "disk space" is oftentimes called "disk quota" or "data storage", yet all these words refer to exactly the same thing - the amount of data that you'll be able to upload to a website hosting account. The total size of the things you have is calculated by accumulating the space used by all of the content in the account, the most obvious being the types of files you upload. Two other things are usually forgotten by the majority of people, though - email messages and also databases. Big attachments and databases of big script-driven websites can sometimes require a lot of disk space too. To employ a more recognizable analogy, the disk space of your personal computer is taken not just by files you download, but additionally by docs you write and programs you add. In a similar way, various things are counted for the hard disk space that your data employs on a web site hosting server, not only the uploads.

Disk Space in Website Hosting

Our website hosting plans were developed with the idea that limited hard disk space can't be something that can limit the progress of your websites. For this reason we've used an approach which is distinct from the one that most web hosting providers apply - rather than creating a variety of accounts using one server and eventually running out of disk space, we employ a cloud hosting platform in which the storage is handled by a wide group of servers. In this way, we're able to install more machines whenever they're necessary or more hard drives, in order to provide more disk space for all of the files of our valued customers. Different clusters handle your email messages and the databases, as a result not only are you able to develop your sites without worrying about space, but also the servers will function better and faster owing to the fact that each service does have its space for storage and an individual server doesn't handle different kinds of files.
