A solid-state drive is considerably faster than any conventional hard-disk drive. This is because a hard-disk drive uses rotating disks, that can rotate only so fast and the more info is read and written, the sluggish and hotter they get, at the same time an SDD works with modules of flash memory, hence there aren't any actually moving parts. The access speeds for an SSD are a lot higher, which makes this sort of drives a preferred solution any time speed is needed. Because of this SSDs are often employed for the Operating System on a personal computer and for saving data that's used frequently on servers. A large number of providers also use a combination of the two drives, so they store the data on hard-disks, but they use one or more solid-state drives in order to cache the more frequently used data and because of this, the data loads a lot faster while the load on the HDDs is reduced since their disks need to spin less often in order to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Website Hosting

Our top-notch cloud web hosting platform employs exclusively SSD drives, so if you obtain any of our website hosting plans, you can take full advantage of the speed that the drives provide. We no longer use hard disks, so your files, databases and emails will all open from ultra fast SSDs. For even greater performance, we also use caching solid-state drives. A group of drives are used by our system for every file that is accessed more frequently and the data on these drives is dynamically refreshed in order to ensure that all the traffic-intensive files load from them. This way, the load on the primary drives is reduced, so we can ensure perfect performance for all types of Internet sites regardless of how often they're accessed and avoid a situation where some websites are affected by an excessive number of reading and writing processes generated by others. This setup also raises the lifespan of the main drives and decreases the chance of disk failure.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you subscribe for one of our semi-dedicated hosting plans, we will store your content on SSD drives and this is valid not just for the files, but also for all the databases and e-mail messages. This way, your script-driven apps and webmail will load extremely fast. We employ dedicated SSDs for caching as well. Traffic-intensive content is copied automatically on these drives, so we make certain that a few heavy sites that generate a large amount of reading and writing processes will not impact the other Internet sites which share the very same drive. By reduction of the overall system load we also increase the lifespan of the main storage disks and lower the possibility of a disk failure, so by employing SSD drives for caching purposes, we add one more level of protection for your website content.
