A web accelerator is a server-side application that quickens a website. Such a piece of software could function in different ways depending upon the website content, but in the typical situation all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That is valid for both static and dynamic sites since the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the benefit of using a web accelerator is not just the faster loading website, but also the smaller overall load on the hosting server. This way, you may employ a lower-end hosting package that'll also cost less while your website visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of companies offer web accelerators with their hosting plans and they often offer only one, while we offer 3 different ones that will allow you to improve the performance of any sort of Internet site tremendously.

Web Accelerators in Hosting

If you acquire one of our hosting packages, you will have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly via the Hepsia Control Panel that is included with our plans. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can significantly increase the speed of any website because it caches the pages that a site visitor opens for the first time and provides them each and every time that visitor opens them again. Because Varnish works faster than any server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator will increase substantially. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a web server, so it is much like Varnish, but is employed primarily for database-driven sites. Since the website shall connect to its database much less, the overall server load shall be decreased significantly. The third accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online programs like chats and booking Internet sites as it processes data in real time as soon as it is entered on the website by the users. Depending on the plan you choose, these accelerators could be available or might be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you choose one of our semi-dedicated server plans, you will be able to work with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three effective web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose application which caches webpages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server if the visitor opens them again approximately 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so the server does not have to process each request, that makes it ideal for database-driven sites, such as ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to create web apps which work in real-time including chats or accommodation booking portals and it processes every bit of info the instant the user types it rather than waiting for massive chunks of data to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP which comes with our semi-dedicated plans shall enable you to pick how many instances of each and every accelerator will work at a time and the amount of memory they will use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers which are obtained with the Hepsia CP. Your hosting server will also include several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package that you select. Memcached is employed for script-driven sites because it caches database responses, as a result reducing the amount of queries that a script sends to its database. It could be used for any script such as WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a powerful platform for building web programs for example booking websites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a server is performed by processing little bits of information as soon any user enters anything on the webpage. In contrast, other platforms wait for users to input plenty of information before they process it, therefore they operate slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator which caches entire webpages and provides them instead of the web server at a considerably quicker rate. It's also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can effortlessly speed up any type of website.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In the event that you purchase a dedicated server from us and you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All plans feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package you select. Node.js is employed for scalable online applications including browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info immediately as the user enters it, which makes it faster than very similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven website, not only will the site speed up, but also the load on the web server will reduce because there shall be considerably less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it isn't limited to databases. Rather, it caches entire webpages once a website visitor opens them and provides them instead of the server whenever the same visitor opens them later. As Varnish processes web requests considerably faster than any web server, the performance of a website using this accelerator could increase nearly 300%.
