A solid-state drive is significantly quicker than any standard hard-disk drive. The reason is that a hard-disk drive works by using spinning disks, that can rotate only so fast and the more data is read and written, the slower and hotter they get, while an SDD works with modules of flash memory, therefore there aren't any physically moving parts. The access speeds for an SSD are a lot higher, which makes these drives an ideal solution if speed is needed. That's why SSDs are often used for the Operating System on a personal computer and for saving data which is used frequently on web servers. A large number of service providers also use a combination of both drives, so they save the data on hard drives, but they use one or more solid-state drives in order to cache the more frequently used data and due to this fact, the data loads faster while the load on the HDDs is reduced because their disks have to spin less frequently to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Shared Web Hosting

We use solely SSDs on our cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform and we've removed all HDDs on our production servers so as to offer outstanding loading speeds for all aspects of our services - files, emails and databases. This way, all of the content which you upload to your shared web hosting account will be reachable very fast. To boost the overall performance of the Internet sites hosted on our end even more, we also use a number of SSDs that function solely as cache - our system stores often accessed content on them and upgrades it instantly. We use such a configuration to guarantee that multi-media heavy sites do not influence the performance of the other sites hosted on our platform and this way all other websites can also take advantage of the speed that the SSD drives provide. What's more, due to the fact that the load on the main drives is reduced, their lifespan shall be longer, that is one more warranty for the safety and stability of your data.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you purchase one of our semi-dedicated hosting packages, your sites will be stored on a cloud platform that employs exclusively SSD drives for the storing of files, databases and emails. Together with the leading-edge ZFS file system that we use, this configuration guarantees very fast loading speed for each web application hosted on our end. To guarantee that the sites of one customer do not affect the ones of another one, we also use multiple SSDs as cache - our system finds files which are accessed more frequently and copies them, so that they start loading from the caching drives. The content on the latter is updated dynamically and because of this we can balance the load on all drives, warrant their long life-span, reduce the risk of disk failures and, of course, offer you a super fast and reliable web hosting service.
