A web accelerator is a software that quickens an Internet site, usually by caching its content. There are many types of accelerators, but in the typical case this sort of apps cache static content or database responses and provide them in lieu of the server, hence improving the performance of a site considerably. The latter is possible because accelerator programs work faster than a server and not simply will a website work better, but the server load will also lessen, which will allow you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We provide three web accelerators with our hosting solutions, which will allow you to increase the speed of any type of site. In comparison, most hosting businesses don't provide any web accelerators or offer only one, which limits your choice of web applications in the event that you would like to employ this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting

When you host your websites within a shared web 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 used for database-driven Internet sites and it caches the calls and requests between a site and its database, so it can reduce the load of such Internet sites tremendously. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them from there on if the same website visitor opens them again. It does that faster than the hosting server, so it can boost 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 within the visitor's world-wide web browser. It's employed for accommodation booking, chats and other applications where lots of data needs to be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends on the hosting solution that you pick - they could come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you shall be able to include more instances or more memory for each of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you opt for one of our semi-dedicated server plans, you will be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 effective web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose application that caches pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the web server if the site visitor opens them again nearly 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses to ensure the server doesn't need to process each and every request, that makes it suitable for database-driven websites, for instance ones developed with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is employed to produce web applications that operate in real-time like chats or accommodation booking sites and it processes every bit of information as soon as the user enters it instead of waiting for big chunks of data to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP that is provided with our semi-dedicated packages shall enable you to select how many instances of each and every accelerator will work at a time and just how much memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are offered with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and based on the package deal you select, you'll also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached shall decrease the hosting server load by lowering the amount of queries which need to be dealt with since it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on any site that uses an API or a database - for example, any website developed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can easily enhance the performance of any sort of website by caching whole webpages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the web pages if the same visitor opens them later on and because it does that faster than the web server, the website visitor will be able to surf your Internet site at least a couple of times faster. This is why Varnish is oftentimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform that'll allow you to develop booking sites, web chats and other apps in which real-time server-user interaction is necessary. It processes the information in tiny portions as the client fills different boxes and does not wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one sizeable piece of information, which makes Node.js way quicker than similar apps.
