A web accelerator is a server-side application that quickens a website. Such a piece of software can function in different ways based on the website content, but in the general case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. That's valid for both static and dynamic Internet sites because the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the benefit of employing a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading Internet site, but also the smaller overall load on the server. This way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting package that will also cost less while your visitors could still enjoy fast browsing speeds. Few businesses offer web accelerators with their hosting plans and they frequently offer just one, while we offer three different ones which will allow you to improve the performance of any kind of website considerably.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting solutions come with 3 web accelerators that you could employ depending on the websites which you would like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which could significantly boost the efficiency of dynamic sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches webpages and delivers them to the visitors way quicker than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform used for scalable real-time applications such as booking sites. Based on the hosting package you pick, these three applications might already be included or could be optional upgrades. In either case, you will be able to choose how many instances of every one of them shall be at your disposal and how much memory they should use. These accelerators are supplied only by a handful of Internet hosting service providers, including ours, and they could boost the speed of your web applications considerably.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia CP which comes with our semi-dedicated server packages shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. Memcached is one of the most widely used accelerators since it can effortlessly speed up any API or database-driven site by caching requests and responses, consequently the server shall not have to process identical requests again and again. The platform is suitable for sites designed with programs such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is an effective accelerator which caches any type of content and is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages that are opened by a site visitor for the first time and delivers them every time that same website visitor opens them again. Varnish can speed up a site several times since it delivers content quicker than any server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time apps such as chats, browser games or social networks. It processes info in smaller parts as soon as a user enters something, as a result it works much more quickly than similar platforms where users submit sizeable pieces of information which need time to be processed. You could select the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the 3 accelerators through your Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

In case you obtain a VPS server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your sites. All three accelerators are integrated in our solutions by default and feature dedicated memory of a few hundred MBs. Node.js is employed to develop scalable applications where real-time interaction is needed - booking Internet sites, online flash games, chats, etc. It processes the data in smaller parts as the end user is entering it, thus it works much faster than other platforms that wait for the end users to input one massive piece of information. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which works as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it if the same site visitor opens the same website again, which can certainly speed any Internet site several times as Varnish operates faster than any web server. Memcached is used for caching API and database responses, therefore it's ideal for script-driven Internet sites such as WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can reduce the load on your server as it will lower the number of database queries that your Internet sites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are available by default with all of our dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the website hosting CP. These three web accelerators feature several gbs of dedicated memory and you could use them to speed up any type of website. Memcached can significantly lessen the load on the server if you have script-driven sites as it caches database responses, so it minimizes the amount of database queries the web server has to tackle. Node.js shall enable you to create scalable applications with real-time user-server interaction like chats or dining booking sites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes info the moment the user enters it, so all the data is managed swifter and in small portions. Varnish caches entire webpages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them each time the same website visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any sort of websites. Because it functions faster than any hosting server, it can easily speed up a website at least several times and because of this, Varnish is among the most popular web accelerators out there.
