A web accelerator is a server-side program that accelerates a website. Such a piece of software could function in different ways based on the website content, but in the typical case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That's valid for both static and dynamic sites as the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the benefit of employing a web accelerator is not only the faster loading site, but also the decreased overall load on the hosting server. This way, you could use a lower-end hosting solution that will also cost less while your website visitors could still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Handful of companies provide web accelerators with their hosting packages and they frequently offer just 1, while we offer three different ones which will allow you to enhance the performance of any kind of site significantly.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting
We offer 3 of the most popular web accelerators together with our cloud website hosting services and depending on what plan you'll select when you sign up, they could already be available or they could be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most well-known one of them and it can be employed for any kind of site. It caches the web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them at a much faster speed compared to the server every time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is employed to cache API and database calls, so it can easily boost the speed of dynamic sites like online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web programs and it functions in real-time, which makes it ideal for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and many others. You will be able to pick how much memory these accelerators shall employ and how many instances of each and every one shall run from your Hepsia website hosting CP.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
The Hepsia CP which is included with our semi-dedicated server solutions shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. Memcached is among the most famous accelerators since it can easily increase the speed of any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, as a result the server shall not need to process identical requests over and over again. The platform is suitable for websites built with applications like Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a powerful accelerator which caches any type of content and is also frequently called an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages which are opened by a visitor for the first time and provides them each time that very same guest opens them again. Varnish can certainly accelerate a website several times as it delivers content faster than any server. Node.js is a platform used for scalable real-time programs such as chats, Internet browser games or social networks. It processes information in little parts as soon as a user enters anything, therefore it operates considerably faster than similar platforms in which users submit massive chunks of info which need time to be processed. You can choose the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the three accelerators through your Control Panel.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
In case you get a VPS server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your sites. All 3 accelerators are included inside our plans by default and feature dedicated memory of several hundred MBs. Node.js is used to build scalable programs where real-time interaction is needed - booking websites, online flash games, chats, and so on. It processes the info in smaller parts as the end user is entering it, as a result it operates much faster than other platforms that wait for the end users to input one massive bit of data. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that operates as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it in the event that the same site visitor opens the same page again, which can speed any website several times since Varnish operates more quickly than any web server. Memcached is used for caching API and database responses, therefore it is suitable for script-driven Internet sites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator will be able to decrease the load on your web server as it will reduce the amount of database queries that your Internet sites make.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are available by default with all our dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel. These three web accelerators come with several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you could employ them to speed up any type of site. Memcached can substantially decrease the load on the web server if you have script-driven Internet sites as it caches database responses, therefore it decreases the number of database queries that the server has to take care of. Node.js shall permit you to develop scalable applications with real-time user-server interaction including chats or dining booking websites. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it processes info the instant the end user enters it, so all the data is managed quicker and in small bits. Varnish caches whole webpages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them each and every time the same website visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any kind of Internet sites. As it functions faster than any server, it can easily speed up an Internet site at least several times and for that reason, Varnish is amongst the most popular web accelerators on the market.
