A web accelerator is a program which speeds up a website, typically by caching its content. There are different sorts of accelerators, but in the general case this kind of programs cache static content or database responses and deliver them in place of the hosting server, as a consequence improving the performance of a website greatly. The latter is possible because accelerator programs work faster than a server and not simply will a site work better, but the server load will also decline, which will enable you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We offer three web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will permit you to accelerate any sort of website. In comparison, most Internet hosting firms do not offer any web accelerators or offer only 1, which limits your choice of web apps if you'd like to use this kind of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

In case you host your websites within a shared hosting account from our firm, you'll have 3 popular web accelerators to choose from if you'd like to improve the sites' efficiency. Memcached is employed for database-driven websites and it caches the calls and requests between a website and its database, so it can minimize the load of such websites significantly. Varnish caches entire webpages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same website visitor opens them again. It does that much faster than the server, so it could raise the loading speed of any site approximately 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs which operates on the server and not in the visitor's web browser. It is employed for accommodation booking, chats and other applications where a lot of data should be processed in real time. The availability of the accelerators depends upon the hosting solution which you select - they may come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you'll be able to add more instances or more memory for each one of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted inside your semi-dedicated server account depending on the nature of the site content. Memcached, for example, caches database requests, therefore it is an excellent choice for any script app like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database hosting server will not have to process the same request if multiple users open a webpage with the same content. Varnish is very similar, but it is a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any sort of content the first time a visitor opens a page. If this web page is opened again by the exact same visitor, it shall be delivered by Varnish at a greater speed compared to the server. Using this web accelerator will decrease the load generated by your Internet sites significantly. Last, but not least, Node.js will permit you to produce scalable web applications such as hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it does not wait for a customer to submit a large piece of info, but processes whatever the client is entering in real-time. The three web accelerators are available inside the Hepsia Control Panel and you shall be able to pick how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

In the event that you choose your VPS server to be set up with the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three of the most commonly used web accelerators. Varnish caches websites the first time they are visited and provides them each and every time the same person visits them again, which shall boost any sort of Internet site several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script programs for example Joomla™ and WordPress because it caches database requests and responses, thus the database server won't need to process the very same webpage every time visitors open it if the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for building real-time applications like online games and chats. It functions considerably faster than similar platforms because it processes the information in small portions all the time and doesn't wait for users to input a large piece of data that will need more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS solutions and include several hundred MBs of dedicated memory.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

If you choose Hepsia as the hosting CP for your new dedicated server, you shall have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js readily available for speeding up your sites. Memcached can decrease the load on the server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make because it caches database responses. This web accelerator is great for dynamic sites built with WordPress, Joomla™ and comparable scripts. Varnish, which is known as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire pages the first time a new website visitor opens them. It could be employed to speed up any sort of Internet site as it delivers the cached content way quicker than the web server every time a visitor opens the same page again. You'll be able to use Node.js for online apps that demand 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 data piece by piece as the user fills each and every box, so it functions considerably faster and more effectively. All dedicated server solutions come with several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these 3 web accelerators.
