Disk Space
What's disk space? What is its place in the web hosting world?
Every time you upload data on a web hosting server, you will need an amount of space on the hard disk depending on its particular size. If you run a script-driven internet site which stores its info in a database, it will take more space, the more people use it. For example, if you have a community forum, the greater number of responses people leave, the bigger the database gets. Emails, in particular ones which have attachments, also need some disk space in the web hosting account. The hard disk space quota you get with any shared hosting provider is the amount of info you may have at any moment, it consists of web site files, e-mails plus databases. Likewise, a home PC has a hard drive and the programs installed on it and all of the docs and music files that you create or download take some space, which cannot exceed the overall capacity of the hard disk.

Disk Space in Shared Hosting
In order to match the processing potential behind our cloud website hosting plans, we have studied and employed the perfect option for the disk space - your account will not be created using one server, but using a cluster system. Due to this fact, what we have assembled is a whole group of servers which is dedicated to the file storage only, so you should never concern yourself with not having enough space and having to switch to a different server since your current one simply cannot accommodate more content. In the event that an additional space is required, all we have to do is attach more machines to the cluster, so the hard drive space is virtually inexhaustible. Of course, our
Linux shared hosting packages are intended to be employed for websites, not for a repository of big files. We also have distinct machines for all the databases and the emails.
