A web accelerator is a program that accelerates a site, usually by caching its content. There are different sorts of accelerators, but in the common case this sort of applications cache static content or database responses and provide them in place of the web server, thus improving the performance of an Internet site greatly. The latter can be done because accelerator applications work faster than a web server and not simply will a website function better, but the server load will also decrease, which will permit you to run heavy sites with less resources. We provide 3 web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will permit you to accelerate any sort of site. In comparison, most website hosting companies do not provide any web accelerators or provide only 1, which limits your choice of web applications if you would like to employ this type of software.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting
When you host your sites in a cloud hosting account from us, you'll have three popular web accelerators to choose from if you would like to boost the sites' efficiency. Memcached is employed for database-driven Internet sites and it caches the calls and requests between a website and its database, so it can reduce the load of such sites drastically. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same visitor opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the server, so it can increase the loading speed of any site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs which functions on the server and not in the visitor's world-wide web browser. It is used for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other applications where plenty of data needs to be processed in real time. The availability of these accelerators depends upon the hosting solution which you choose - they could come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you shall be able to include more instances or more memory for every one of them.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted within your semi-dedicated server account based on the nature of the website content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, so it is an excellent option for any script application like WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database web server shall not have to process the exact same request if many users open a website with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator because it caches any type of content the first time a visitor opens a site. In case this webpage is opened again by the same visitor, it shall be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator will decrease the load produced by your websites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js will enable you to build scalable web applications like hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a customer to submit a large piece of info, but processes whatever the user is entering in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available inside 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 can employ.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
If you choose your VPS server to be incorporated with the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most widespread web accelerators. Varnish caches pages the first time they're visited and provides them each and every time the same person visits them again, which can speed up any type of website several times. Memcached is used for dynamic script apps such as Joomla™ and WordPress since it caches database requests and responses, as a consequence the database server will not need to process the same page each time visitors open it in the event that the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for building real-time programs for instance online games and chats. It works much quicker than similar platforms since it processes the information in small parts all the time and does not wait for users to input a sizable piece of data which shall need more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS packages and include several hundred MBs of dedicated memory.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In the event that you obtain a dedicated server from us and you opt for Hepsia as the hosting CP, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your websites. All plans feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package deal you select. Node.js is used for scalable online applications like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data in real time as the client enters it, which makes it much faster than similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven Internet site, not simply will the website work faster, but also the load on the web server will minimize since there shall be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not at all limited to databases. Rather, it caches entire websites once a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the server each time the same visitor opens them afterwards. Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests much quicker than any web server, the performance of a site using this accelerator could increase up to 300%.
