A web accelerator is a server-side application which quickens an Internet site. Such a piece of software can work in different ways depending on the site content, but in the typical situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That is valid for both static and dynamic Internet sites because the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator isn't simply the faster loading website, but also the lessened overall load on the server. That way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting solution that'll also cost less while your website visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of firms supply web accelerators with their hosting packages and they typically offer just 1, while we offer three different ones that will enable you to improve the performance of any sort of Internet site substantially.

Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting

We provide 3 of the most popular web accelerators along with our shared web hosting services and based upon what plan you'll pick when you sign up, they may already be available or they might be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most well-known one of them and it may be used for any type of site. It caches the pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them at a considerably faster speed compared to the web server each and every time that a visitor opens them again. Memcached is employed to cache API and database calls, so it can increase the speed of dynamic sites including online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is used 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 so on. You will be able to choose just how much memory these accelerators shall use and how many instances of each one will run from your Hepsia Internet hosting Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the Internet sites hosted in your semi-dedicated server account in accordance with the nature of the site content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, therefore it is a fantastic choice for any script program like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database web server won't need to process the exact same request if multiple users open a page with the same content. Varnish is comparable, but it is a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any type of content the first time a guest opens an Internet site. If that web page is opened again by the exact same website visitor, it will be provided by Varnish at a greater speed compared to the server. Employing this web accelerator shall decrease the load produced by your sites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js shall allow you to create scalable web apps like hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it does not wait for a client to submit a big piece of data, but processes whatever the client is typing in real-time. The three web accelerators are available within the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to choose how many instances of each and every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they may use.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In case you obtain a dedicated server from us and you pick Hepsia as the hosting CP, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All packages include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the actual amount depends on the package deal you choose. Node.js is employed for scalable online apps including browser games or hotel booking and it processes the information right away as the user enters it, which makes it considerably faster than very similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven site, not simply will the Internet site speed up, but also the load on the server will minimize as there shall be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it isn't limited to databases. Rather, it caches whole pages once a guest opens them and provides them instead of the server whenever the same visitor opens them later. Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests much quicker than any hosting server, the overall performance of an Internet site using this accelerator may increase as much as 300%.
