No Data Corruption & Data Integrity in Cloud Website Hosting
The integrity of the data which you upload to your new cloud website hosting account will be guaranteed by the ZFS file system that we employ on our cloud platform. Most of the hosting service providers, including our company, use multiple hard disks to store content and considering that the drives work in a RAID, the exact same data is synchronized between the drives all of the time. If a file on a drive becomes corrupted for whatever reason, yet, it is likely that it will be reproduced on the other drives since alternative file systems do not have special checks for that. Unlike them, ZFS uses a digital fingerprint, or a checksum, for every file. In case a file gets corrupted, its checksum won't match what ZFS has as a record for it, which means that the damaged copy will be substituted with a good one from another disk drive. Because this happens instantly, there is no risk for any of your files to ever be corrupted.
No Data Corruption & Data Integrity in Semi-dedicated Servers
You won't need to deal with any silent data corruption issues whatsoever should you obtain one of our semi-dedicated server solutions since the ZFS file system that we employ on our cloud hosting platform uses checksums in order to ensure that all files are undamaged at all times. A checksum is a unique digital fingerprint which is given to each and every file kept on a server. Since we store all content on a number of drives simultaneously, the same file uses the same checksum on all drives and what ZFS does is that it compares the checksums between the different drives right away. In the event that it detects that a file is corrupted and its checksum is different from what it has to be, it replaces that file with a healthy copy right away, avoiding any possibility of the corrupted copy to be synchronized on the other hard disks. ZFS is the sole file system you can find that uses checksums, which makes it far superior to other file systems that cannot identify silent data corruption and copy bad files across drives.
