A web accelerator is a software program which accelerates a website typically by caching content and providing it instead of the server. Such programs can be employed for both dynamic and static sites since there are different accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The benefit of employing a web accelerator is that a given website shall perform substantially faster without using extra system resources. Just the opposite, this type of a site will demand much less resources to operate since the web accelerator will take care of most requests instead of the hosting server. In contrast to many companies which do not offer web accelerators with their plans or offer one, we offer 3 different ones that'll allow you to speed up your websites regardless of their kind or content.

Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting

We provide 3 of the most popular web accelerators with our shared web hosting packages and based upon what plan you will pick when you sign up, they may already be available or they may be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most popular one of them and it could be used for any kind of site. It caches the web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and delivers them at a considerably faster speed compared to the server each time that a visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it can increase the speed of dynamic sites such as online stores, forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web programs and it functions in real-time, which makes it suitable for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, etc. You shall be able to select what amount of memory these accelerators shall employ and how many instances of each one will run from your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you choose one of our semi-dedicated server packages, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three effective web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose program that caches webpages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the web server if the site visitor opens them again approximately 300% quicker. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so that the server does not need to process each and every request, which makes it ideal for database-driven websites, such as ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is employed to develop web applications which function in real-time like chats or accommodation booking sites and it processes each bit of information the instant the user enters it as opposed to waiting for massive pieces of information to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel which is provided with our semi-dedicated packages will enable you to pick how many instances of each and every accelerator shall work at a time and the amount of memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

In the event that you get a VPS server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All three accelerators are incorporated in our plans by default and feature dedicated memory of several hundred MBs. Node.js is used to develop scalable applications where real-time interaction is needed - booking websites, online games, chats, etc. It processes the data in small portions as the user is entering it, as a result it operates more quickly than other platforms which wait for the end users to input one sizeable bit of data. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that functions as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it when the same site visitor opens the same page again, which can easily speed any Internet site several times due to the fact that Varnish works 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 can decrease the load on your hosting server because it will lower the amount of database queries your Internet sites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are offered with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and in accordance with the package you opt for, you shall also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached will lessen the server load by lowering the amount of queries which have to be dealt with because it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on every Internet site that uses an API or a database - for instance, any website built with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could boost the performance of any sort of website by caching whole pages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the web pages if the very same visitor opens them later and given that it does that faster than the hosting server, the website visitor shall be able to surf your site at least a few times faster. For this reason Varnish is sometimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an advanced platform that will allow you to build booking sites, web chats and other applications in which real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the data in little bits as the client fills different boxes and does not wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one big piece of info, which makes Node.js way quicker than similar programs.
