A web accelerator is a server-side app that speeds up an Internet site. Such a piece of software may function in different ways depending on the website content, but in the general case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That's valid for both static and dynamic websites because the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator is not only the faster loading site, but also the decreased overall load on the web server. That way, you can employ a lower-end hosting package that will also cost less while your site visitors can still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Several service providers offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they usually offer only one, while we offer three different ones that will permit you to enhance the performance of any kind of Internet site noticeably.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting
We offer 3 of the most popular web accelerators with our cloud website hosting packages and depending on what plan you'll select when you sign up, they could already be available or they might be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most widely used one of them and it may be employed for any sort of website. It caches the pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them at a considerably faster speed compared to the web server each and every time that a visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it can increase the speed of dynamic websites like online stores, forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web apps and it works in real-time, which makes it perfect for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, etcetera. You'll be able to choose what amount of memory these accelerators will use and how many instances of each will run from your Hepsia hosting CP.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account based on the nature of the site content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, therefore it is a superb choice for any script application such as WordPress or Joomla. That way, the database server won't have to process the same request if multiple users open a page with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any kind of content the first time a website visitor opens a site. If this page is opened again by the same guest, it'll be provided by Varnish at a greater speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator shall reduce the load created by your sites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js shall enable you to build scalable web applications such as hotel booking sites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a user to submit a substantial piece of info, but processes whatever the user is typing in real-time. The three web accelerators are available within the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to choose how many instances of every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.
Web Accelerators in VPS
In the event that you choose your virtual private server to be set up with the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most popular web accelerators. Varnish caches pages the first time they are visited and delivers them every time the same individual visits them again, which will speed up any type of Internet site several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script applications for example Joomla and WordPress because it caches database requests and responses, as a result the database hosting server won't need to process the same page each time guests open it in the event that the same content should be shown. Node.js is a platform for developing real-time applications for instance online games and chats. It functions faster than similar platforms as it processes the information in small parts all the time and does not wait for users to submit a large piece of data which will require more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS packages and come with several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Hosting
If you choose Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel for your new dedicated server, you will have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js at your disposal for speeding up your Internet sites. Memcached will be able to reduce the load on the hosting server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make because it caches database responses. This web accelerator is perfect for dynamic Internet sites built with WordPress, Joomla and comparable scripts. Varnish, which is referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire webpages the first time a new visitor opens them. It can be employed to accelerate any type of site because it delivers the cached content much quicker than the server any time a visitor opens the same webpage again. You can employ Node.js for online applications that call for real-time server-client interaction including online chats or booking sites. Different from other platforms that wait for the user to input everything on a form, Node.js processes the info bit by bit as the user fills each and every box, so it operates considerably faster and more efficiently. All dedicated server plans include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those 3 web accelerators.
