APC, or Alternative PHP Cache, is a PHP module that caches the output code of database-driven script apps. Dynamic PHP Internet sites hold their content inside a database that is accessed whenever a visitor opens a page. The content that needs to be displayed is gathered and the code is parsed and compiled before it's delivered to the website visitor. These actions take some processing time and involve reading and writing on the server for each and every page which is loaded. While this cannot be avoided for sites with regularly changing content material, there are many websites that offer the very same content on a number of of their pages all of the time - blogs, informational portals, hotel and restaurant websites, etcetera. APC is really useful for such websites since it caches the previously compiled code and displays it whenever visitors browse the cached pages, so the code does not need to be parsed and compiled repeatedly. This will not only greatly reduce the server load, but it will also increase the speed of any website a few times.

APC (PHP Opcode Cache) in Cloud Hosting

APC is provided with each cloud hosting solution that we offer and you could enable it with just a click through your Hepsia Control Panel if you wish to use it for your web apps. A couple of minutes later the framework will be working and you'll notice the quicker loading speed of your database-driven Internet sites. Since we offer several versions of PHP that can also be selected through Hepsia, you will even be able to employ APC for scripts which need different versions of PHP inside the same account. Our next generation cloud web hosting platform is very adaptable, so if you use an alternative web accelerator for any Internet site and it disrupts APC, you'll be able to activate or deactivate the aforementioned for a certain site only by using a php.ini file generated in the domain or subdomain folder.

APC (PHP Opcode Cache) in Semi-dedicated Hosting

APC is provided with all semi-dedicated hosting solutions as it's pre-installed on the cloud website hosting platform where your account will be created. In case you wish to use this module, you'll be able to enable it with a single click from your Hepsia Control Panel and it will be fully operational within a few minutes. As you may want to use some other web accelerators for selected websites, our cutting-edge platform will allow you to personalize the software environment inside your account. You will be able to activate APC for different versions of PHP or use it only for some websites and not for others. For example, a Drupal™-based site could work with APC using PHP 5.4 and a WordPress site can work without APC using PHP 5.6. All it takes to do that is a php.ini file with a few lines in it, so you can run Internet sites with different requirements inside the exact same account.
