The Z File System, or ZFS, is a high level file system that is a lot better than any other file system out there. It is incredibly reliable and provides the best possible performance for the hosting platforms which employ it. What makes it different is that it compares the so-called checksum of all the files on the hard drives which comprise a RAID array in real time and in case a file is broken, it is repaired immediately. In simple terms, the very same website files are stored on two or more hard disks and if there is an issue with a file on one hard disk, a good copy is used from the other drive to restore that file. In contrast, none of the other popular file systems uses checksums. ZFS is also considerably quicker and its performance is not affected by the quantity of files stored on the hosting servers. The bigger speeds also enable backups to be generated quicker and more often without affecting the efficiency of the system.
ZFS Cloud Storage, Mails, MySQL in Shared Website Hosting
Considering all the advantages that ZFS has over other file systems, it is not a surprise that we've chose to employ it on the cutting-edge cloud platform on which your new shared website hosting account will be created. Our custom setup and the Hepsia CP make this possible since the other popular control panels cannot work on ZFS. The result of our work is a way quicker and efficient web hosting service - we will store your files, databases and emails on ZFS-powered servers which include huge amounts of RAM and NVMe drives that will offer the best possible speed for your Internet sites. We also take advantage of the considerably faster backup generation which ZFS delivers, so we'll keep four different copies of all your files, databases and e-mails daily without influencing the performance of the hosting servers - something which companies using other file systems cannot offer. Each web server from the storage clusters also includes a backup machine and the ZFS file system allows us to have the latest copy of your content on both places - a good copy, of course. This way, if a server fails, we could switch to its backup within a few seconds, so your websites will be up and running at all times and you shall never have to be concerned about the integrity of your files or about the balance of your web server.
