ZFS is one of the most advanced file systems on the market and it outshines any other file system in terms of speed, efficiency and security. The speed at which data is processed on a server employing ZFS is much greater, so not simply shall any sites hosted on the hosting server be read and executed considerably faster, but also backups could be created faster and more frequently without affecting the efficiency. Additionally, ZFS works with checksums - digital algorithms that are employed to recognize corrupted files. Whenever the file system finds that there is a problem with a particular file, it repairs it using a good copy from another hard disk in the RAID. Both the checks and the repairs are done right away, so the data saved on ZFS-based servers shall be safe at all times since it practically cannot get corrupted. A different advantage of ZFS over other file systems is that there's no limit for the total amount of files that can be saved inside a single account or on the web server as a whole.
ZFS Cloud Storage, Mails, MySQL in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Considering all the advantages which ZFS has over other file systems out there, we have made a decision to employ it on all our hosting servers which are a part of the advanced cloud platform in which new semi-dedicated hosting accounts are created. Powerful machines with hundreds of gigabytes of physical memory and NVMe drives will guarantee the best possible performance of the file system and of any site hosted on our end. We use the same setup for storing not only the files you upload, but also any databases you build and emails that you receive, which boosts the quality of our service noticeably over what you are able to find on the market. Not only shall there be no limit to the amount of files and email messages that you can have at any time, but you'll also have four browsable backups of all your content each day and the backup generation will not affect the server performance. Offering such a number of backups is because of the superior data compression rates the ZFS system provides. Because all files are checked in real time, we could also switch to a backup web server within a few moments if there is a problem with any hosting server and the information on it shall be the latest one, so you'll never have to think about the reliability of your hosting service or worry about losing any information.
