A solid-state drive is significantly quicker than any normal hard disk. This is because a hard-disk drive employs rotating disks, which can rotate only so fast and the more info is read and written, the sluggish and warmer they get, whereas an SDD uses modules of flash memory, hence there are no actually moving components. The access speeds for an SSD are considerably higher, which makes this sort of drives the best solution if speed is needed. Because of this SSDs are frequently employed for the Operating System on a PC and for storing data which is used repeatedly on servers. A lot of providers also use a combination of both drives, so they store the data on hard-disks, but they use several solid-state drives to cache the more frequently used data and due to this fact, the data loads a lot quicker while the load on the HDDs is lowered as their disks need to spin less often to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Cloud Web Hosting

If you host your sites in a cloud web hosting account with our company, you'll notice their exceptional performance. This is because our cloud platform uses only SSD drives for all of the files, e-mails and databases and we don't use HDDs for any part of the hosting service. Along with the state-of-the-art ZFS file system, this configuration will boost the speed of your Internet sites significantly. For load-balancing, we also use numerous SSDs for caching purposes only. All the content that generates more traffic or causes lots of reading/writing processes is copied on them automatically, so that the load on the primary drives will be reduced, thus the overall performance of all sites hosted on our end will be better. The aforementioned in turn prolongs the life of the main drives and lessens the chance of a disk failure, which is a further warranty for the reliability of any content which you upload to your account.

Traffic-intensive content is duplicated automatically on these drives, so we make sure that several heavy Internet sites that generate a considerable amount of reading and writing processes won't influence the other Internet sites that share the very same drive. By reducing the overall load we also increase the lifespan of the primary storage drives and lower the potential for a disk failure, so by employing SSD drives for caching purposes, we add an additional level of stability for your website content.
