A web accelerator is an application which speeds up a site, typically by caching its content. There are different kinds of accelerators, but in the common case such applications cache static content or database responses and provide them instead of the server, therefore enhancing the performance of a site greatly. The latter is achievable because accelerator applications work faster than a server and not simply will an Internet site function better, but the server load will also minimize, which will permit you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We provide three web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will permit you to increase the speed of any sort of website. In comparison, most hosting firms don't provide any web accelerators or provide only one, which limits your choice of web applications if you want to use this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting

When you host your sites inside a cloud hosting account from our company, you'll have three popular web accelerators to pick from if you'd like to enhance the sites' functionality. Memcached is used for database-driven sites and it caches the calls and requests between an Internet site and its database, so it could reduce the load of such websites drastically. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them from there on if the same visitor opens them again. It does that much faster than the hosting server, so it could raise the loading speed of any website as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time applications which functions on the web server and not in the visitor's browser. It's used for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other apps where a lot of data has to be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends upon the hosting solution that you choose - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you will be able to add more instances or more memory for each of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted within your semi-dedicated server account in accordance with the nature of the website content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, so it is a fantastic choice for any script application such as WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database web server will not need to process the exact same request if a number of users open a webpage with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it is a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any kind of content the first time a website visitor opens an Internet site. If this page is opened again by the exact same website visitor, it will be provided by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator can minimize the load generated by your Internet sites tremendously. Last, but not least, Node.js shall allow you to build scalable web applications such as hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it doesn't wait for a user to submit a sizable piece of info, but processes whatever the user is inputting in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available in the Hepsia CP and you'll be able to pick how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they may employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

We provide Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers which are acquired with the Hepsia CP. Your hosting server shall also feature a few hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount would be determined by the package that you choose. Memcached is employed for script-driven sites because it caches database responses, thus lowering the number of queries a script sends to its database. It could be used for any script such as WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a highly effective platform for building web apps such as booking websites and chats. The real-time interaction between end users and a hosting server is carried out by processing smaller parts of data as soon any user inputs anything on the site. By comparison, other platforms await users to enter loads of data before they process it, consequently they operate slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches whole web pages and delivers them instead of the hosting server at a faster rate. It is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can easily speed up any kind of Internet site.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In the event that you acquire a dedicated server from us and you pick Hepsia as the hosting CP, you will be able to use Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your websites. All packages feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the specific amount depends on the plan you select. Node.js is used for scalable online apps such as browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data right away as the client enters it, which makes it much quicker than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven site, not only will the site speed up, but also the load on the server will minimize as there shall be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Instead, it caches entire web pages once a guest opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server each time the same visitor opens them later. As Varnish processes web requests much faster than any hosting server, the performance of an Internet site using this accelerator may increase as much as 300%.
