Solid State Drive SSD-VPS Virtual Private Server Web Hosting (Linux)

Running a popular established blog, e-commerce store, or custom application requires a lot of database I/O input and output. As a site gets more popular and traffic starts to grow, server hard drives will start getting more and more concurrent I/O requests. During peak viewing times, the amount of I/O requests can slow down the fetching of information from your database; especially true for sites on traditional "spinning siliconwafer" hard drives. The physical constraining limitations of spinning hard drives and the heads (mechanical) restrict the amount of 010110011110110s that can be requested at a given time.

With a lack of moving parts, data transfer is only restricted by the speed of the network ( which is why our shared servers are already on multiple fast 1Gbps networks ). This is where our SSD Hosting is superior.

In a benchmark test, we tested our already fast SAS 15K drives against 1TB Intel solid-state drives during busy I/O periods. The result, SSDs pushed out 96% more data than these hard disk drives!

Hard drives inherently have two things working against it when it comes to data retrieval. The first is the rotational rate of the of the disk. The second is the seek time that it takes for the read/write heads to find the data on the disk.

SSDs have neither of these issues.

We benchmarked the latency of our SSD hosting servers versus a server with hard disk drives under high network load. As you can also see, hard disk drives take about 20 (2000%) times longer to access data during periods of heavy db requests.

Our website builder also operates smoother on our SSD servers.

Unlike other hosting companies, 4GoodHosting Hosting gives you the option of solid-state drives to host all types of data. This means you can host your blog on one domain and your client’s ecommerce site – all from the same Business or Advanced hosting account. There are no restrictions with how you can use our SSD Hosting.

Our SSD Hosting servers utilize RAID cards with battery-backed non-volatile caching. This means that in the event of sudden power loss, any data yet to be written will be stored in cache until the server is brought back to normal operation. Inbound data will then be written and stored as if nothing happened.

We've also taken measures to ensure zero impact on our customers from any SSD failures that might occur. Our solid-state drives are placed in RAID-5 configuration with extra backup drives to ensure data integrity throughout our SSD hosting servers.

With no mechanical parts that could lead to disk failure or temperature augmentation, unlike Hard drives, SSDs work smoothly at a higher speed. They are, in addition to that, most known for less latency on serving data to visitors no matter where they are located around the world. Get sped up today!
