A web accelerator is a program that accelerates a website, typically by caching its content. There are different types of accelerators, but in the general case this sort of programs cache static content or database responses and supply them instead of the hosting server, as a consequence improving the performance of a website significantly. The latter is achievable because accelerator programs work faster than a server and not only will an Internet site work better, but the server load will also lessen, which will enable you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We provide 3 web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will permit you to increase the speed of any sort of site. In comparison, most Internet hosting providers don't provide any web accelerators or offer just one, which limits your choice of web applications in the event that you would like to use this kind of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting plans come with three web accelerators which you will be able to use depending on the websites which you'd like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which can greatly enhance the performance of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches pages and provides them to the visitors much faster than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time programs including booking sites. With respect to the hosting package you select, these 3 programs could already be included or may be optional upgrades. Either way, you'll be able to choose how many instances of every one of them shall be at your disposal and how much memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are provided only by a handful of Internet hosting service providers, including ours, and they can raise the speed of your web programs drastically.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the Internet sites hosted within your semi-dedicated server account depending on the nature of the website content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, therefore it's a fantastic choice for any script program like WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database 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 as it caches any kind of content the first time a guest opens a page. If that web page is opened again by the very same guest, it will be delivered by Varnish at a much better speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator will decrease the load produced by your sites substantially. Last, but not least, Node.js shall allow you to create scalable web apps like hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a customer to submit a large piece of info, but processes whatever the user is inputting in real-time. The three web accelerators are available in the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to select how many instances of every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers which are obtained with the Hepsia CP. Your hosting server will also include several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount would be determined by the plan that you pick. Memcached is employed for script-driven sites because it caches database responses, consequently reducing the amount of queries that a script sends to its database. It could be used for any script like WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is an effective platform for creating web apps for example booking sites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a server is conducted by processing small parts of data as soon any user enters anything on the site. In contrast, other platforms await users to enter loads of information before they process it, as a result they operate more slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches whole pages and provides them instead of the hosting server at a faster rate. It's also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can effortlessly speed up any sort of Internet site.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In case you purchase a dedicated server from us and you choose Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All solutions feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the exact amount depends on the plan you select. Node.js is employed for scalable online apps like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info instantly as the user enters it, which makes it faster than very similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven website, not only will the Internet site speed up, but also the load on the hosting server will reduce since there will be fewer database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Rather, it caches whole websites once a website visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the web server whenever the same visitor opens them later. Because Varnish processes web requests faster than any web server, the efficiency of an Internet site using this accelerator may increase up to 300%.
