InnoDB

InnoDB is a database engine for MySQL relational databases, which is used by widely used PHP-driven web apps such as Magento and Joomla^™ 3.x. It is perfect for scalable apps, since it works stunningly well when handling large data volumes. Instead of locking the entire table to append new information to a database as many other engines do, InnoDB locks only one database row, so it can complete a lot more operations for the same period of time. Besides, InnoDB offers a better database crash recovery and supports database transactions and foreign key constraints – rules that determine how data imports and updates should be treated. In case a certain task hasn’t been entirely completed for any reason, the action will be rolled back. In this way, the information in the database will be retained undamaged and will not be partially mixed with newly appended content.
