If you have an HTML site, most likely it uses a really small amount of system resources as it is static, but this isn't so with dynamic database-driven Internet sites that use PHP scripts and provide much more features. Such websites generate load on the hosting server each time someone browses them, as the web server requires time to execute the script, to access the database and then to provide the content requested by the visitor's browser. A popular discussion board, for instance, stores all usernames and posts inside a database, so some load is produced every single time a thread is opened or a user looks for a specific name. If lots of people connect to the forum simultaneously, or if each search involves checking a large number of database entries, this could produce high load and affect the functionality of the Internet site. In this regard, CPU and MySQL load data can give you information about the site’s overall performance, as you can compare the numbers with your traffic statistics to determine if the website needs to be optimized or moved to a new kind of web hosting platform that will be able to bear the high system load if the Internet site is really popular.

MySQL & Load Stats in Shared Web Hosting

If you host your sites in a shared web hosting account with our company, you shall have access to detailed CPU and MySQL statistics that will enable you to keep track of their performance. You are able to see the data with a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The CPU Load section will reveal to you the total time period the hosting server spent on your scripts and just how much memory was needed, and the time it took for the scripts to be executed. The day-to-day view is the standard one, but you may also see the stats from the preceding months. The MySQL Load section will provide you with additional information about the total amount of queries to every database that you have set up inside the account. Once again, you can easily see month-to-month, daily and hourly statistics, that shall give you data which is different from the traffic or the number of visitors that you get. Thus, you can determine if the Internet sites require some optimization.

MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you want to see detailed stats about the load generated by your websites, it won't take more than a few clicks to do that. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, supplied with all semi-dedicated servers that we offer, features a section focused on the system resource usage and the information there can tell you if your websites perform well and if the load they create corresponds to the number of received site visitors. The CPU load data include the script execution time and the length of time it took for the web server to process the requests, and what sorts of processes generated the load. The MySQL stats shall show you the number of times each database was accessed, plus daily and by the hour stats for the whole account. With both types of statistics, you are able to check the numbers for every one of the past days and months, so you can easily see how the sites perform as the traffic to them grows or once you've applied some update.
