Disk Space (Storage Space)
Begin by estimating the storage needs of your website, encompassing the size of your website files, databases, media files, and accounting for potential future growth. Consider the following storage options tailored to different requirements:
SSD (Solid State Drive): Ideal for applications demanding high-performance storage, such as databases, virtual machines, and content delivery networks, due to their fast read/write speeds and low latency.
HDD (Hard Disk Drive): Suited for scenarios requiring large storage capacities at a lower cost-per-terabyte, making them suitable for data archiving, backup, and less frequently accessed data.
NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express): Provides ultra-fast storage performance, catering to I/O-intensive workloads like big data analytics, real-time data processing, and high-frequency trading.
RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks): Supports RAID configurations, which enhance data protection, performance, and reliability through disk mirroring and striping.
