A web accelerator is a server-side program which speeds up a site. Such a piece of software may work in different ways depending on the site content, but in the general case all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That is valid for both static and dynamic sites because the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the benefit of using a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading website, but also the decreased overall load on the machine. That way, you could employ a lower-end hosting solution which will also cost less while your visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Few companies offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they often offer just 1, while we offer 3 different ones that'll allow you to boost the performance of any kind of Internet site substantially.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting
Our cloud hosting plans include 3 web accelerators which you can use depending on the websites that you'd like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which could considerably enhance the functionality of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches webpages and provides them to the site visitors considerably quicker than the server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time apps including booking websites. With respect to the hosting plan you select, these three programs might already be included or may be optional upgrades. Regardless, you shall be able to select how many instances of each of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to use. These accelerators are provided only by a handful of hosting providers, including ours, and they can easily increase the speed of your web programs drastically.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you go for one of our semi-dedicated hosting packages, you shall be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose app that caches pages the first time a website visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the web server if the website visitor opens them again close to 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so that the web server doesn't have to process every request, that makes it suitable for database-driven Internet sites, for example ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to build web programs that function in real-time like chats or accommodation booking sites and it processes each bit of info as soon as the user types it as opposed to waiting for large chunks of data to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP which is included with our semi-dedicated packages shall enable you to choose how many instances of each accelerator shall work at a time and how much memory they'll use.
Web Accelerators in VPS
In the event that you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All three accelerators are included in our plans by default and come with dedicated memory of a few hundred megabytes. Node.js is used to develop scalable apps where real-time interaction is required - booking sites, online flash games, chats, and so on. It processes the info in small portions as the user is entering it, thus it operates faster than other platforms that wait for the users to input one large piece of info. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which operates as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it if the same guest opens the same webpage again, which can speed any Internet site several times because Varnish works faster than any server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, consequently it's suitable for script-driven websites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator will be able to reduce the load on your hosting server because it shall reduce the amount of database queries your sites make.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Hosting
Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and depending on the package which you pick, you will also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached will decrease the server load by lowering the amount of queries which have to be handled as it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on every Internet site which uses an API or a database - as an illustration, any website built with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can boost the performance of any kind of website by caching whole pages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the webpages if the very same visitor opens them afterwards and since it does that considerably quicker than the server, the website visitor will be able to look through your Internet site at least a few times faster. That is why Varnish is occasionally called an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform that'll enable you to build booking websites, web chats and other apps in which real-time server-user interaction is necessary. It processes the data in little portions as the client 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 way quicker than similar apps.
