A web accelerator is a server-side application that accelerates an Internet site. Such a piece of software can function in different ways depending on the site content, but in the general case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That is valid for both static and dynamic websites since the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the advantage of using a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading website, but also the lessened overall load on the machine. That way, you can use a lower-end hosting package that will also cost less while your site visitors can still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Several businesses supply web accelerators with their hosting deals and they frequently offer just 1, while we offer three different ones that'll permit you to improve the performance of any sort of Internet site significantly.
Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting solutions come with 3 web accelerators which you will be able to employ depending on the websites that you'd like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which could significantly improve the performance of dynamic sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches pages and delivers them to the site visitors faster than the server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform used for scalable real-time apps including booking websites. Based on the web hosting package you choose, these three programs may already be included or could be optional upgrades. Regardless, you'll be able to select how many instances of each one of them will be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are offered only by a handful of hosting firms, including ours, and they could boost the speed of your web apps significantly.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account based on the nature of the website content. Memcached, for example, caches database requests, therefore it is a great choice for any script app such as WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database web server won't have to process the same request if multiple users open a website with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any sort of content the first time a guest opens an Internet site. If this webpage is opened again by the exact same visitor, it'll be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the server. Using this web accelerator will decrease the load produced by your Internet sites considerably. Last, but not least, Node.js will permit you to build scalable web applications such as hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it does not wait for a client to submit a big piece of info, but processes whatever the user is typing in real-time. The three web accelerators are available within the Hepsia CP and you'll be able to pick how many instances of each and every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they may use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
We provide Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all virtual private servers which are ordered with the Hepsia CP. Your hosting server shall also feature a few hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the specific amount would depend on the package deal that you pick. Memcached is used for script-driven websites as it caches database responses, as a result reducing the amount of queries that a script sends to its database. It can be employed for any script like WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is an effective platform for creating web applications like booking websites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a hosting server is carried out by processing little pieces of info as soon any user enters anything on the website. In contrast, other platforms wait for customers to enter a lot of information before they process it, as a result they work more slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches entire pages and provides them instead of the web server at a much faster rate. It's also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can effortlessly speed up any kind of site.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
In case you acquire a dedicated server from us and you pick Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your Internet sites. All packages feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the actual amount depends on the plan that you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online programs like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data immediately as the user enters it, which makes it much quicker than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven site, not only will the site speed up, but also the load on the web server will decline as there shall be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it isn't limited to databases. Instead, it caches whole pages once a visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the server whenever the same visitor opens them afterwards. Since Varnish processes web requests much quicker than any hosting server, the performance of an Internet site using this accelerator can increase nearly 300%.
