A web accelerator is a software program that speeds up a site typically by caching content and supplying it instead of the server. Such applications can be employed for both static and dynamic websites because there are different accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The main advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given website will perform significantly faster without using extra system resources. Just the opposite, this type of a site will need significantly less resources to function as the web accelerator will tackle most requests rather than the hosting server. Contrary to many firms which don't offer web accelerators with their packages or offer just one, we offer 3 different ones that will allow you to speed up your sites regardless of their type or content.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting

Our cloud website hosting packages include three web accelerators that you could employ depending on the Internet sites which you'd like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which could significantly boost the functionality of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches webpages and delivers them to the website visitors way quicker than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform used for scalable real-time programs such as booking websites. With respect to the web hosting solution you select, these three apps may already be included or may be optional upgrades. Either way, you will be able to choose how many instances of each of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they should use. These accelerators are provided only by several web hosting companies, including ours, and they could boost the speed of your web programs drastically.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account depending on the nature of the website content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, therefore it's a fantastic choice for any script app such as WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database server will not have to process the exact same request if a number of users open a website with the same content. Varnish is comparable, but it's a general-purpose accelerator because it caches any sort of content the first time a website visitor opens an Internet site. In case that page is opened again by the very same visitor, it shall be provided by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the hosting server. Using this web accelerator will reduce the load produced by your websites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js shall allow you to build scalable web apps such as hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a user to submit a sizable piece of data, but processes whatever the client is inputting in real-time. The three web accelerators are available in the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to pick how many instances of each and every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Web Hosting

In case you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia CP, you shall be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All 3 accelerators are included within our solutions by default and come with dedicated memory of several hundred MBs. Node.js is employed to build scalable programs where real-time interaction is necessary - booking websites, online flash games, chats, and so forth. It processes the info in small pieces as the end user is entering it, as a result it operates more quickly than other platforms which wait for the end users to enter one massive bit of info. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which works as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it if the same site visitor opens the same website again, which can certainly speed any Internet site several times as Varnish works quicker than any server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, consequently it's suitable for script-driven sites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can minimize the load on your web server as it shall reduce the amount of database queries your websites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are provided with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and in accordance with the plan that you opt for, you'll also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached will minimize the hosting server load by lowering the number of queries that have to be handled since it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on any website that uses an API or a database - for instance, any site built with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could improve the performance of any kind of site by caching whole webpages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the web pages if the same visitor opens them later and given that it does that much quicker than the hosting server, the visitor shall be able to look through your Internet site at least a few times faster. This is why Varnish is often called an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform that will allow you to create booking websites, web chats and other apps where real-time server-user interaction is required. It processes the information in little portions as the client fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one big chunk of info, which makes Node.js way quicker than similar applications.
