A web accelerator is a server-side program that accelerates a site. Such a piece of software could work in different ways depending on the site content, but in the typical case all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. That is valid for both static and dynamic sites since the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator is not simply the faster loading site, but also the minimized overall load on the web server. This way, you could use a lower-end hosting plan that will also cost less while your site visitors will be able to still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Few firms provide web accelerators with their hosting deals and they usually offer just one, while we offer three different ones that will permit you to enhance the performance of any type of Internet site considerably.
Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
In case you host your websites inside a shared hosting account from our firm, you shall have three popular web accelerators to select from if you'd like to boost the sites' performance. Memcached is employed for database-driven websites and it caches the calls and requests between an Internet site and its database, so it could decrease the load of such websites considerably. Varnish caches whole web pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same guest opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the server, so it can boost the loading speed of any Internet site up to 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs which functions on the hosting server and not within 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 those accelerators depends on the hosting solution that you select - they could come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you shall be able to include more instances or more memory for every one of them.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most efficient web accelerators out there. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses, so it could easily increase the speed of any script-driven website. You could use it for any website created with WordPress or Joomla, for instance. Varnish is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it is a general-purpose caching platform which can be employed for any kind of sites. Based on the content, it can improve the performance of a site approximately 300%. Node.js is an advanced system employed to develop scalable Internet apps that process information in real time for example booking portals. Its advantage is that unlike comparable platforms, it processes information constantly and in small pieces instead of waiting for the user to submit one big piece of data. The accelerators can be enabled for any website through the Hepsia Control Panel and you shall be able to select how many instances of each one of them will work and how much memory they shall employ.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
All VPS servers that are incorporated with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you shall receive several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, that's also often called an HTTP reverse proxy, caches webpages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them in case that visitor opens them again, so the web server won't need to perform any action. Since Varnish functions faster than any hosting server, an Internet site using this accelerator will operate several times faster. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it's used for WordPress, Joomla and other script-driven applications which store their content inside a database. Node.js is a highly effective platform for building scalable web apps. Any information on a website which uses Node.js is processed in real time, which makes it a fantastic choice for dining and accommodation booking websites, web-based chats, browser games, and so on.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In the event that you obtain a dedicated server from us and you pick Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your Internet sites. All plans feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package you select. Node.js is employed for scalable online programs such as browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info immediately as the client enters it, which makes it much quicker than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven Internet site, not simply will the Internet site speed up, but also the load on the web server will minimize since there shall be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it is not limited to databases. Instead, it caches entire webpages once a guest opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server whenever the same visitor opens them later on. Since Varnish processes web requests considerably faster than any server, the efficiency of a site using this accelerator may increase nearly 300%.
