The Z File System, or ZFS, is an advanced file system which is superior to any other file system out there. It is extremely reliable and delivers the very best performance for the hosting platforms which employ it. What makes it special is that it compares the so-called checksum of all files on the hard disks which comprise a RAID array in real time and in case a file is broken, it is repaired right away. In simple terms, the exact same website files are saved on two or more hard disks and if there's an issue with a file on one hard disk, a good copy is employed from the other drive to restore that file. In comparison, none of the other popular file systems has checksums. ZFS is also considerably faster and its functionality isn't impacted by the amount of files stored on the web servers. The bigger speeds also enable backups to be generated faster and more often without affecting the performance of the system.
ZFS Cloud Storage, Mails, MySQL in Cloud Hosting
We're among the few hosting providers that have employed the ZFS file system and this enables us to offer a superior service compared with what you could find available on the market. In case you acquire a cloud hosting package, it will be created on our state-of-the-art cloud platform and all web servers which comprise it employ ZFS and come with a large amount of RAM and NVMe drives that enable us totake advantage of all features that the file system offers. Different from other firms, we have no limit for the amount of files you could have and your content will be safe at all times due to the data integrity that ZFS delivers. If you erase something accidentally or a script update does not go as planned, you shall be able to recover your Internet site with a couple of clicks because the higher backup speed which the ZFS file system delivers compared with other file systems allows us to produce four backups of your entire account daily. For better results, we employ ZFS on our database and e-mail servers also. As a consequence of the much faster overall performance of ZFS and the fact that even if an entire server fails for whatever reason, we could switch to a backup machine that will have the latest copy of your website, you'll not have to concern yourself with speed, reliability or data integrity anymore.
ZFS Cloud Storage, Mails, MySQL in Semi-dedicated Servers
Considering all the advantages which ZFS has over other file systems on the market, we have made a decision to use it on all our web servers which are part of the state-of-the-art cloud platform where new semi-dedicated server accounts are set up. Effective servers with hundreds of gigabytes of physical memory and NVMe drives will guarantee the very best possible performance of the file system and of any Internet site hosted on our end. We use the same setup for storing not only the files which you upload, but any databases you create and emails which you receive, which boosts the quality of our service tremendously over what you'll be able to find on the market. Not only shall there be no restriction to the quantity of files and email messages you may have at any time, but you shall also have four browsable backups of all your content every day and the backup generation won't affect the hosting server performance. Offering such a number of backups is because of the superior data compression rates the ZFS system offers. As all files are checked out in real time, we could also switch to a backup server in seconds if there is an issue with any hosting server and the data on it will be the latest one, so you'll never need to consider the reliability of your hosting service or stress about losing any content.
