A web accelerator is a server-side app that quickens a site. Such a piece of software can operate in different ways depending on the site content, but in the typical case all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That's valid for both dynamic and static websites as the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading site, but also the minimized overall load on the server. This way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting package which will also cost less while your website visitors could still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Few firms offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they typically offer only one, while we offer three different ones which will enable you to improve the performance of any kind of Internet site tremendously.
Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting
When you purchase one of our shared website hosting plans, you shall have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly via the Hepsia CP that is included with our plans. Varnish is one of the most well-known ones and it can tremendously increase the speed of any website because it caches the web pages which a visitor opens for the first time and delivers them each and every time that visitor opens them again. Since Varnish functions noticeably faster than any hosting server, the loading speed of any Internet site using the accelerator shall raise substantially. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a site visitor and a hosting server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is used mainly for database-driven Internet sites. Because the website will connect to its database significantly less, the overall server load will be decreased substantially. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online programs including chats and booking sites as it processes info in real time the moment it is entered on the site by the users. Depending on the package you choose, these accelerators might be available or might be an optional upgrade.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you pick one of our semi-dedicated server solutions, you will be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose program that caches websites the first time a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the server if the website visitor opens them again approximately 300% quicker. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so that the server doesn't have to process each and every request, which makes it ideal for database-driven Internet sites, such as ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to create web apps that function in real-time like chats or accommodation booking websites and it processes each bit of data the instant the user enters it instead of waiting for sizeable portions of info to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our semi-dedicated packages will permit you to select how many instances of every accelerator will work at a time and just how much memory they'll use.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In case you purchase a dedicated server from our firm and you choose Hepsia as the hosting CP, you'll be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your websites. All plans include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the specific amount depends on the package you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online apps like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info right away as the user enters it, which makes it considerably faster than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven Internet site, not only will the site speed up, but also the load on the hosting server will decline because there shall be fewer database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Instead, it caches entire websites once a guest opens them and provides them instead of the server every time the same visitor opens them later on. Because Varnish processes web requests much quicker than any hosting server, the efficiency of an Internet site using this accelerator can increase around 300%.
