The Z File System, or ZFS, is a high level file system that is a lot better than any other file system available on the market. It is extremely reliable and provides the best possible 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 drives that make up a RAID array in real time and in case a file is damaged, it's repaired instantly. Essentially, the very same website files are stored on two or more hard drives and if there is an issue with a file on one drive, a good copy is used from the other drive so as to restore that file. In comparison, none of the other popular file systems has checksums. ZFS is also much quicker and its functionality is not affected by the quantity of files stored on the web servers. The higher speeds also enable backups to be created quicker and more often without affecting the performance of the system.
ZFS Cloud Storage, Mails, MySQL in Cloud Website Hosting
The cloud website hosting plans we offer are set up on our ZFS-powered cloud platform and when you host your Internet sites with us, you shall experience all of the advantages of this file system. All hosting servers which are a part of our cluster system employ ZFS and feature NVMe drives and a large amount of RAM. Therefore, your sites will function many times more quickly than if they were running on a hosting server with the regular setup that you'll find with other web hosting companies. For better performance, we use the ZFS file system on all clusters - not simply the ones in which your files are located, but also the ones which deal with the databases and the email messages. The file system offers significantly better loading speeds and guarantees the integrity of your website given that if a production server fails, we could switch to a backup one and it will have the latest version of your Internet site or the latest email messages which you have received. The faster backup speeds also permit us to make four daily backups of all your content - files, databases and email messages. This makes our web hosting packages the best solution for your sites if you're looking for a fast and efficient service.
