A web accelerator is a piece of software that accelerates a website generally by caching content and supplying it instead of the web server. Such programs can be employed for both static and dynamic Internet sites since there are a variety of accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The benefit of using a web accelerator is that a given Internet site will perform significantly faster without using extra resources. Quite the opposite, such a website will require significantly less resources to work as the web accelerator will handle most requests rather than the server. In contrast to many companies which don't offer web accelerators with their packages or offer one, we offer 3 different ones that'll permit you to speed up your sites regardless of their kind or content.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting

In case you host your sites in a cloud hosting account from us, you will have 3 popular web accelerators to choose from if you'd like to improve the sites' efficiency. Memcached is used for database-driven websites and it caches the calls and requests between a website and its database, so it could decrease the load of such Internet sites drastically. Varnish caches entire web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same website visitor opens them again. It does that faster than the web server, so it can raise the loading speed of any site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs that operates on the web server and not within the visitor's web browser. It's employed for accommodation booking, chats and other applications where a lot of data should be processed in real time. The availability of the accelerators depends upon the hosting plan which you choose - they may come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you'll be able to include more instances or more memory for each of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you go for one of our semi-dedicated server packages, you will be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose app which caches web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the hosting server if the site visitor opens them again approximately 300% quicker. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses in order that the server doesn't have to process each and every request, which makes it ideal for database-driven sites, for instance ones designed with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is employed to develop web programs which work in real-time like chats or accommodation booking websites and it processes every bit of info the moment the user types it instead of waiting for large portions of info to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel which is included with our semi-dedicated plans will permit you to select how many instances of each accelerator shall work at a time and what amount of memory they will use.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are provided with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and depending on the plan you pick, you'll also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached will lessen the web server load by lowering the number of queries which have to be addressed as it caches database calls and responses. You will be able to use it on every Internet site which uses an API or a database - for example, any site designed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can boost the performance of any kind of site by caching whole pages the first time a visitor opens them. The accelerator provides the web pages if the exact same visitor opens them later and since it does that way quicker than the hosting server, the website visitor will be able to surf your site at least a couple of times faster. That's why Varnish is oftentimes called an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform that will allow you to develop booking websites, web chats and other applications in which real-time server-user interaction is necessary. It processes the info in tiny portions as the client fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one large chunk of info, which makes Node.js much faster than similar programs.
