MySQL Database Storage

Learn what MySQL database storage is and exactly how much of it will your web hosting account require to have.

Compared with a static HTML site where all content is on the actual website pages, any script-driven Internet site stores all of its information inside a database. Just a few examples of this sort of sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart e-commerce portal - in both cases, item listings, selling prices, blog posts, user reviews etc are gathered in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the information you include, the more substantial the database gets and if your Internet hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database may have, your Internet site may not function correctly as soon as you hit that limit. The end results can vary from not being able to add new content to inadequately performing Internet site or even the site displaying only error messages and not being accessible at all.
