A web accelerator is an application which accelerates an Internet site, usually by caching its content. There are many types of accelerators, but in the typical case this kind of apps cache static content or database responses and provide them in lieu of the server, as a consequence increasing the performance of a site considerably. The latter can be done because accelerator apps work faster than a web server and not only will a website work better, but the server load shall also lessen, which will enable you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We offer three web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will allow you to speed up any sort of Internet site. In comparison, most website hosting businesses don't provide any web accelerators or offer only 1, which limits your choice of web applications if you would like to employ this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

We offer 3 of the most well-known web accelerators along with our shared hosting solutions and based on what plan you will select when you sign up, they might already be available or they might be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most widely used one of them and it may be employed for any type of Internet site. It caches the pages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them at a faster speed compared to the server each time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is employed to cache API and database calls, so it can easily increase the speed of dynamic Internet sites such as online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is used for scalable web apps and it works in real-time, which makes it ideal for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and so on. You'll be able to pick the amount of memory these accelerators will use and how many instances of each shall run from your Hepsia hosting CP.

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, therefore it is a superb option for any script app such as WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database server shall not have to process the exact same request if multiple users open a website with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it is a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any type of content the first time a visitor opens a page. In case that webpage is opened again by the exact same website visitor, it'll be provided by Varnish at a greater speed compared to the web server. Employing this web accelerator shall decrease the load created by your sites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js will permit you to produce scalable web applications like hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it does not wait for a customer to submit a sizable piece of data, but processes whatever the client is typing in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available within the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to pick how many instances of each and every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they may use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

In case you choose your VPS server to be integrated with the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most widespread web accelerators. Varnish caches sites the first time they're visited and delivers them each time the same person visits them again, which can speed up any sort of website several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script apps for example Joomla™ and WordPress as it caches database requests and responses, thus the database hosting server won't have to process the very same page every time guests open it if the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for creating real-time programs like online games and chats. It operates considerably faster than similar platforms because it processes the data in little portions all the time and doesn't wait for users to enter a large piece of data that will need more time to be processed. The three web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS solutions and feature several hundred MBs of dedicated memory.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In case you purchase a dedicated server from our firm and you choose Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to use Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your websites. All solutions come with several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the exact amount depends on the plan you choose. Node.js is employed for scalable online programs like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info in real time as the client enters it, which makes it much 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 website speed up, but also the load on the hosting server will minimize because there shall be considerably less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Instead, it caches whole pages once a website visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the web server each time the same visitor opens them afterwards. As Varnish processes web requests much quicker than any hosting server, the efficiency of a website using this accelerator may increase as much as 300%.
