A web accelerator is an application that accelerates a website, normally by caching its content. There are many sorts of accelerators, but in the typical case this kind of programs cache static content or database responses and deliver them instead of the hosting server, thus improving the performance of a site significantly. The latter can be done because accelerator programs work faster than a server and not simply will a site function better, but the server load will also decrease, which will allow you to run heavy Internet sites with less system resources. We offer 3 web accelerators with our hosting solutions, which will enable you to increase the speed of any kind of website. In comparison, most hosting providers do not provide any web accelerators or offer only 1, which limits your choice of web apps if you want to employ this kind of software.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting

In case you purchase one of our cloud website hosting packages, you shall have three popular web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly using the Hepsia Control Panel that is included with our plans. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can significantly accelerate any website as it caches the web pages which a website visitor opens for the first time and provides them every time that visitor opens them again. Since Varnish operates considerably faster than any server, the loading speed of any Internet site using the accelerator will improve noticeably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between an Internet site visitor and a web server, so it's similar to Varnish, but is employed mainly for database-driven Internet sites. Because the site shall connect to its database a lot less, the overall server load will be decreased substantially. The last accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online apps such as chats and booking websites because it processes data in real time the instant it is entered on the site by the users. Depending on the plan you pick, these accelerators may be available or might be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you pick one of our semi-dedicated server solutions, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 powerful web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose application which caches websites the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them instead of the web server if the site visitor opens them again nearly 300% quicker. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so that the server does not have to process every request, that makes it ideal for database-driven websites, for example ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is employed to create web programs that operate in real-time such as chats or accommodation booking portals and it processes every bit of data the instant the user types it instead of waiting for big pieces of data to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP which comes with our semi-dedicated solutions shall permit you to choose how many instances of each accelerator shall work at a time and just how much memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

All VPS servers which are incorporated with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you'll get several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, which is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them when that guest opens them again, so the hosting server won't have to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish functions faster than any web server, a website employing this accelerator shall work several times quicker. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it's employed for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven programs which store their content inside a database. Node.js is a powerful platform for building scalable web programs. Any info on a site which employs Node.js is processed instantly, which makes it an excellent choice for dining and accommodation booking Internet sites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, etcetera.

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 Internet hosting CP. These three web accelerators include several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you can use them to speed up any type of Internet site. Memcached can drastically minimize the load on the hosting server if you have script-driven websites because it caches database responses, so it minimizes the number of database queries which the hosting server has to handle. Node.js will enable you to create scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction like chats or dining booking sites. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it processes data the instant the user enters it, so all the information is handled swifter and in small bits. Varnish caches entire Internet pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them each and every time the same website visitor opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any kind of sites. Since it works quicker than any hosting server, it could speed up a website at least several times and because of this, Varnish is among the most widely used web accelerators out there.
