A web accelerator is a server-side app that speeds up a website. Such a piece of software could work in different ways depending on the site content, but in the general situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That is valid for both static and dynamic sites because the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator isn't just the faster loading website, but also the reduced overall load on the web server. This way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting solution which will also cost less while your site visitors will be able to still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Handful of firms offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they frequently offer just 1, while we offer 3 different ones which will allow you to enhance the performance of any type of website noticeably.
Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting solutions feature three web accelerators which you can employ depending on the Internet sites which you would like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which can considerably boost the efficiency of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches webpages and provides them to the site visitors way quicker than the server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time programs for example booking sites. Based on the web hosting plan you choose, these 3 applications may already be included or may be optional upgrades. In any case, you shall be able to choose how many instances of each one of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are offered only by several hosting service providers, including ours, and they can easily raise the speed of your web programs considerably.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
The Hepsia CP which comes with our semi-dedicated server plans shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. Memcached is one of the most widely used accelerators because it can easily accelerate any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, thus the server won't have to process identical requests time after time. The platform is perfect for websites designed with programs 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 pages that are opened by a website visitor for the first time and provides them each time that same website visitor opens them again. Varnish can accelerate a site several times since it delivers content faster than any server. Node.js is a platform used for scalable real-time programs such as chats, web browser games or social networks. It processes information in little bits as soon as a user enters something, so it works much faster than similar platforms where users submit massive pieces of info which need time to be processed. You can pick the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the three accelerators via your CP.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
All VPS servers that are integrated with the Hepsia Control Panel come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you'll get several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, that's also often called an HTTP reverse proxy, caches webpages the first time a guest opens them and delivers them if that guest opens them again, therefore the server will not need to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish works considerably faster than any hosting server, a site employing this accelerator shall operate several times quicker. Memcached is a platform that caches database calls and responses and it's used for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven apps that store their content in a database. Node.js is an effective platform for building scalable web applications. Any info on a website that employs Node.js is processed right away, making it a superb choice for dining and accommodation booking Internet sites, web-based chats, web browser games, and so on.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are offered by default with all our dedicated servers that are ordered with Hepsia as the Internet hosting Control Panel. These 3 web accelerators include several gbs of dedicated memory and you may use them to speed up any kind of site. Memcached can drastically reduce the load on the server if you have script-driven Internet sites because it caches database responses, thus it decreases the amount of database queries that the web server has to tackle. Node.js shall enable you to build scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction such as chats or dining booking websites. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it processes data the moment the end user enters it, so all the data is managed faster and in small bits. Varnish caches entire webpages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them each and every time the same website visitor opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any type of Internet sites. Since it functions quicker than any hosting server, it can easily speed up an Internet site at least several times and due to this fact, Varnish is amongst the most popular web accelerators on the market.
