InnoDB is a database storage engine for MySQL databases, which is used by widely used open-source script-based web applications such as Joomla™ 3.x and Magento. It’s ideal for scalable apps, since it performs really well when handling huge data volumes. Rather than locking the entire database table to append new information to a database like many other engines do, InnoDB locks only one row, so it can complete a lot more tasks for the same period of time. Furthermore, InnoDB offers a much faster crash recovery and supports transactions and foreign key constraints – a set of rules that determine how data inserts and modifications should be treated. In case a certain task has not been entirely completed for whatever reason, the action will be rolled back. Thus, the information in the database will stay undamaged and won’t be partially mixed with newly added content.

Any script-powered software application that needs InnoDB will function impeccably on our avant-garde cloud platform and the MySQL database storage engine comes with all our cloud web hosting plans. Each time you create a MySQL database manually or our app installer tool creates one automatically and an app installation process is initiated, the engine that the database in question will make use of will be selected on the basis of the app’s prerequisites without the need to edit any setting in your shared account. InnoDB will be chosen automatically for any application that requires this particular engine and you’ll be able to make the most of its full potential. We’ll keep daily backups of your content, so if you unintentionally erase a MySQL database that is important to you or you overwrite a certain part of it, we’ll be able to restore your content the way it was only a few hours ago.
