A web accelerator is a program that quickens a site, usually by caching its content. There are many sorts of accelerators, but in the typical case this kind of programs cache static content or database responses and deliver them instead of the web server, therefore boosting the performance of a site greatly. The latter is achievable because accelerator applications work faster than a web server and not simply will a website operate better, but the server load shall also minimize, which will allow you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We offer 3 web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will enable you to speed up any kind of website. In comparison, most hosting businesses don't provide any web accelerators or offer just one, which limits your choice of web applications in the event that you want to employ this kind of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

In case you host your sites within a shared hosting account from our company, you shall have 3 popular web accelerators to select from if you would like to improve the sites' functionality. Memcached is employed for database-driven Internet sites and it caches the calls and requests between an Internet site and its database, so it could decrease the load of such sites significantly. Varnish caches whole webpages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same website visitor opens them again. It does that much more quickly than the server, so it could raise the loading speed of any Internet site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time applications which functions on the web server and not within the visitor's Internet browser. It's used for accommodation booking, chats and other applications where lots of data has to be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends upon the hosting plan which you select - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you will be able to include more instances or more memory for each of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia CP which is provided with our semi-dedicated server solutions will allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your sites. Memcached is among the most widely used accelerators because it can effortlessly increase the speed of any API or database-driven site by caching requests and responses, consequently the web server shall not have to process identical requests over and over again. The platform is perfect for sites built with apps such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a highly effective accelerator which caches any sort of content and is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches web pages that are opened by a website visitor for the first time and provides them every time that same site visitor opens them again. Varnish can speed up an Internet site several times since it delivers content faster than any server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time applications like chats, Internet browser games or social networks. It processes information in little parts the moment a user types anything, as a result it operates faster than similar platforms in which users submit big chunks of info that require time to be processed. You can choose the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the three accelerators through your CP.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

All VPS servers which are set up with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you will have several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, that is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches web pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them if that visitor opens them again, therefore the server shall not have to perform any action. Since Varnish operates considerably faster than any server, a site employing this accelerator will function several times quicker. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it is employed for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven applications that store their content in a database. Node.js is a powerful platform for building scalable web programs. Any info on a site that uses Node.js is processed instantly, which makes it a superb choice for dining and accommodation booking Internet sites, web-based chats, web browser games, etc.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

If you choose Hepsia as the hosting CP for your new dedicated server, you will have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js at your disposal for accelerating your websites. Memcached will be able to reduce the load on the hosting server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make since it caches database responses. This web accelerator is perfect for dynamic sites built with WordPress, Joomla™ and very similar scripts. Varnish, which is referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire webpages the first time a new guest opens them. It could be used to speed up any sort of website since it provides the cached content way quicker than the hosting server every time a customer opens the same webpage again. You can employ Node.js for online programs that demand real-time server-client interaction such as online chats or booking sites. Unlike other platforms which await the user to enter everything on a form, Node.js processes the info gradually as the user fills every box, so it functions considerably quicker and more efficiently. All dedicated server packages feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these three web accelerators.
