InnoDB is a storage engine for MySQL databases, which is used by well known PHP-driven software applications like Joomla™ v3 and Magento. It’s excellent for scalable apps, because it works very well when processing enormous volumes of data. Rather than locking the whole table to import new information into a database as many other engines do, InnoDB locks only one row, so it can execute much more operations for the same length of time. Furthermore, InnoDB offers a much faster database crash recovery and supports database transactions and foreign keys – a set of rules that prescribe how data inserts and updates should be treated. In case a given task has not been thoroughly completed for some reason, the action will be rolled back. In this way, the database content will stay intact and will not be partially mixed with new content.
