A web accelerator is a server-side program that speeds up a site. Such a piece of software can operate in different ways based on the site content, but in the typical case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That is valid for both static and dynamic websites since the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the benefit of using a web accelerator is not simply the faster loading site, but also the minimized overall load on the server. This way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting plan which will also cost less while your website visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of service providers offer web accelerators with their hosting plans and they usually offer just one, while we offer three different ones which will permit you to enhance the performance of any sort of website tremendously.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting

If you host your sites within a cloud website hosting account from us, you shall have three popular web accelerators to pick from if you'd like to improve the sites' functionality. Memcached is used for database-driven sites and it caches the calls and requests between a site and its database, so it can easily lessen the load of such sites drastically. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same visitor opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the hosting server, so it could increase the loading speed of any Internet site up to 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time apps that works on the server and not within the visitor's Internet browser. It's used for accommodation booking, chats and other apps where lots of data has to be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends on the hosting solution that you choose - they may come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you'll be able to include more instances or more memory for every one of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia CP that is included with our semi-dedicated server solutions shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. Memcached is among the most popular accelerators as it can easily increase the speed of any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, as a result the hosting server shall not need to process identical requests time after time. The platform is suitable for Internet sites designed with apps such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is an effective accelerator that caches any kind of content and is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages that are opened by a website visitor for the first time and delivers them each time that same site visitor opens them again. Varnish can certainly accelerate a site several times since it delivers content quicker than any hosting server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time apps such as chats, browser games or social networks. It processes information in smaller pieces the instant a user enters anything, as a result it operates much more quickly than similar platforms where users submit large portions of information which need time to be processed. You'll be able to select the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the 3 accelerators through your Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

In the event that you obtain a VPS server with the Hepsia CP, you shall be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your sites. All 3 accelerators are integrated within our packages by default and feature dedicated memory of a few hundred MBs. Node.js is used to develop scalable apps where real-time interaction is needed - booking websites, online flash games, chats, etcetera. It processes the data in small portions as the user is entering it, as a result it works faster than other platforms that wait for the users to input one sizeable bit of information. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that functions as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it in the event that the same website visitor opens the same website again, which can certainly speed any website several times as Varnish operates a lot quicker than any server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, so it is suitable for script-driven sites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can easily reduce the load on your hosting server since it'll lower the amount of database queries your Internet sites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and in accordance with the package deal that you pick, you shall also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can decrease the web server load by lowering the amount of queries that need to be addressed because it caches database calls and responses. You'll be able to use it on any site which uses an API or a database - for example, any website designed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could improve the performance of any sort of website by caching whole webpages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator delivers the webpages if the very same visitor opens them later and because it does that much faster than the server, the visitor will be able to browse your site at least several times faster. For this reason Varnish is oftentimes referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform that'll allow you to build booking websites, web chats and other programs where real-time server-user interaction is required. It processes the data in small bits as the user fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one sizeable chunk of info, which makes Node.js considerably faster than similar programs.
