A solid-state drive is noticeably quicker than any standard hard disk. The reason is that a hard-disk drive uses rotating disks, that can rotate only so fast and the more data is read and written, the slower and warmer they become, while an SDD operates with modules of flash memory, so there aren't any actually moving components. The access speeds for an SSD are considerably higher, which makes this sort of drives a recommended solution when speed is needed. That's why SSDs are in many cases employed for the Operating System on a desktop or notebook and for storing data that is used frequently on web servers. A large number of providers also use a combination of both drives, so they keep the data on HDDs, but they use several solid-state drives to cache the more often used data and due to this fact, the data loads quicker while the load on the HDDs is decreased because their disks need to spin less frequently in order to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Website Hosting

Our innovative cloud hosting platform employs exclusively SSD drives, so in case you acquire any of our website hosting plans, you will take advantage of the speed that the drives provide. We no longer use hard disk drives, so your files, databases and emails will all open from high-speed SSDs. For even better performance, we use caching SSDs. Multiple drives are used by our system for every file that's 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. That way, the load on the main drives is decreased, so we can ensure perfect performance for all sites no matter how often they are accessed and prevent a situation where some sites are affected by an excessive number of reading and writing processes created by others. This setup also improves the lifespan of the primary drives and decreases the risk of disk failure.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you buy one of our semi-dedicated server packages, your Internet sites will be stored on a cloud platform which uses solely SSD drives for the storage of files, databases and e-mails. Along with the revolutionary ZFS file system that we use, this setup ensures very fast loading speed for every web app hosted on our end. To guarantee that the Internet sites of one user don't affect the ones of another one, we also use multiple SSDs as cache - our system discovers files that are accessed more frequently and clones them, so they start loading from the caching drives. The content on the latter is refreshed dynamically and consequently we can balance the load on all the drives, guarantee their long life-span, lower the risk of disk failures and, of course, offer you a super fast and reliable Internet hosting service.
