A web accelerator is a software application which accelerates an Internet site usually by caching content and supplying it instead of the server. Such applications may be employed for both static and dynamic Internet sites because there are a variety of accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given site will perform considerably faster without using additional resources. Just the opposite, this kind of a site will require significantly less resources to work since the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the server. In contrast to many firms that do not offer web accelerators with their plans or offer one, we offer 3 different ones that will allow you to speed up your websites regardless of their style or content.
Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
We provide three of the most well-known web accelerators together with our shared hosting packages and based upon what plan you will select when you sign up, they might already be available or they could be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most widely used one of them and it could be employed for any type of Internet site. It caches the web pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them at a faster speed compared to the hosting server every time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it could boost the speed of dynamic sites such as online stores, discussion boards or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web applications and it functions in real-time, which makes it perfect for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and so on. You'll be able to pick how much memory these accelerators shall employ and how many instances of each and every one will run from your Hepsia Internet hosting CP.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server solutions will allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - 3 of the most powerful web accelerators available on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, so it can accelerate any script-driven website. You could use it for any site designed with WordPress or Joomla™, for example. Varnish is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy and it is a general-purpose caching platform that could be used for any kind of sites. With regards to the content, it may improve the performance of an Internet site roughly 300%. Node.js is an advanced system employed to create scalable Internet apps which process information in real time for instance booking portals. Its advantage is that different from comparable platforms, it processes info consistently and in small portions rather than waiting for the user to submit one large chunk of data. The accelerators can be enabled for any Internet site from the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to select how many instances of each of them will work and how much memory they shall employ.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
In the event that you obtain a VPS server with the Hepsia CP, you will be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All three accelerators are included in our plans by default and feature dedicated memory of a few hundred megabytes. Node.js is used to create scalable applications where real-time interaction is necessary - booking websites, online games, chats, and so forth. It processes the info in little portions as the user is entering it, thus it works more quickly than other platforms which wait for the users to enter one large piece of information. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which works as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it in the event that the same visitor opens the same page again, which can certainly speed any website several times because Varnish works a lot quicker than any server. Memcached is used for caching API and database responses, so it is appropriate for script-driven websites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator will be able to decrease the load on your hosting server as it shall reduced the amount of database queries that your websites make.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In case you order a dedicated server from our company and you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your Internet sites. All packages include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the actual amount depends on the plan that you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online apps such as browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info instantly as the user enters it, which makes it considerably faster than very similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven site, not only will the website work faster, but also the load on the server will minimize since there will be fewer database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it is not limited to databases. Rather, it caches entire webpages once a visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the web server each time the same visitor opens them later. Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests much faster than any server, the performance of a site using this accelerator could increase around 300%.
