MySQL & Load Stats
What sort of data is provided in the MySQL & Load Stats section? How do you take full advantage of it?
The CPU load depends on the time a hosting server spends executing a script whenever a visitor opens a webpage on a specific script-driven site. Static HTML Internet sites use hardly any CPU time, but this isn't so with the significantly more complex and functional scripts, that use a database and display dynamic content. The more individuals open this kind of a website, the more load will be produced on the hosting server and if the database is large, the MySQL server will be loaded also. A good example of what could cause high load is an Internet store with a huge number of products. If it's popular, lots of people shall be exploring it all at once and if they seek out items, the whole database that contains all the products will also be constantly accessed by the script, which will result in high load. In this light, having CPU and MySQL load data will give you an idea of how the site is doing, if it needs to be optimized or if you just need a more powerful web hosting solution - if the site is extremely popular and the established setup cannot cope with the load.
MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you need to see detailed statistics with regards to the load created by your websites, it will not take more than a few mouse clicks to do that. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, supplied with all semi-dedicated servers we offer, has a section focused on the system resource usage and the information there can tell you if your websites operate properly and if the load they produce corresponds to the total amount of received visitors. The CPU load stats include the script execution time and the time it took for the web server to process the requests, and also what types of processes produced the load. The MySQL data will show you how often each database was accessed, as well as everyday and hourly stats for the whole account. With both sorts of statistics, you'll be able to check the numbers for each of the past days and months, so you can easily see how the websites perform as the traffic to them grows or after you have applied some update.
