PostgreSQL Database Storage
Find out how PostgreSQL database storage works and the reasons you need this feature as part of your web hosting account.
In case you use a database-driven script application for your site, all of the content that you or the website users add, will be stored in cells and tables inside a database, not as ordinary text in the application files. In comparison, HTML sites are static and all the content on such a website is a part of the actual HTML files. An online store application, for example, pulls all items, prices, user reviews, etc, from its database and this is valid for any kind of script that enables you to build a dynamic website. The more the info you put, the larger the database gets, so in case you use a script-driven site, you need to make sure that your website hosting plan features sufficient database storage space. The latter applies regardless of the kind of databases you are using - for instance MySQL or PostgreSQL.

PostgreSQL Database Storage in Shared Web Hosting
In case you use our
shared web hosting services, you can expand the content and the user base of your PostgreSQL-driven sites as much as you like as some of our packages are provided with unrestricted database storage. Even if you start with a lower-end plan, you can improve either the database space feature or the entire package, so as to have sufficient system resources for your websites. We employ a custom cloud platform and we have a whole cluster dedicated to the database storage. Because no other processes run on these servers, the overall performance is better and we will add more servers or hard drives when they're needed. No matter how many items you add to your online store or how many comments people leave on your discussion board, you'll never encounter any issues because of limited database storage space.
