SSD with Data Caching
Discover how your websites will have significantly improved performance on a web server, provided with SSDs with Data Caching.
A solid-state drive (SSD) boosts the performance of every application running on it when compared with a regular hard-disk drive (HDD). The reason is that an SSD uses a number of interconnected flash memory modules, so there're no physical parts to move. In comparison, an HDD uses spinning disks and each reading or writing process causes the disks to rotate, which means that the speed of an HDD is limited. Since the prices of the two kinds of drives also differ, a large number of computer systems and web servers are provided with an SSD for the operating system and various applications, and an HDD for file storage, thus balancing price and performance. A web hosting provider may also use a solid-state drive for caching purposes, which means that files that are used very often will be saved on this type of a drive for accomplishing improved loading speeds and for limiting the reading/writing processes on the HDDs.

SSD with Data Caching in Shared Hosting
We use only SSDs on our advanced cloud web hosting platform and we have eliminated all HDDs on the production servers as to provide lightning-fast loading speeds for every aspect of our services - files, e-mails and databases. This way, any content you upload to your
shared hosting account will be accessible amazingly quickly. To improve the overall performance of the sites hosted on our end even more, we also use multiple SSDs that function solely as cache - our system saves routinely accessed content on them and upgrades it without delay. We take advantage of this type of a configuration to ensure that resource-demanding Internet sites do not affect the performance of the other Internet sites hosted on our platform and this way all other sites can also take full advantage of the speed that the SSD drives provide. What's more, since the load on the main drives is reduced, their life-span will be longer, that is one more guarantee for the security and stability of your info.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you sign up for one of our
semi-dedicated server plans, we will keep your content on SSD drives and this is valid not only for the files, but also for all the databases and e-mails. This way, your script-driven apps and webmail will load amazingly quickly. We work with dedicated SSDs for caching too. Traffic-intensive website content is cloned automatically on these drives, so we ensure that several heavy sites that generate a large amount of reading and writing processes can't impact the other Internet sites that share the same drive. By reducing the overall system load we also boost the lifespan of the main storage disks and decrease the chance of a disk failure, so by employing SSD drives for caching purposes, we add an extra level of protection for your website content.
