A web accelerator is a server-side app that accelerates a website. Such a piece of software may function in different ways depending on the site content, but in the typical case all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That's valid for both dynamic and static Internet sites since the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the reward of using a web accelerator is not only the faster loading Internet site, but also the minimized overall load on the machine. That way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting package that'll also cost less while your site visitors will be able to still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Several service providers supply web accelerators with their hosting packages and they frequently offer just 1, while we offer three different ones which will allow you to enhance the performance of any sort of website significantly.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting

When you buy one of our cloud hosting solutions, you shall have three popular web accelerators at your disposal and you shall be able to access them directly through the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our solutions. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it could considerably speed up any website because it caches the pages a visitor opens for the first time and provides them every time that visitor opens them again. Since Varnish functions considerably faster than any web server, the loading speed of any Internet site using the accelerator will grow considerably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between an Internet site visitor and a hosting server, so it's much like Varnish, but is used predominantly for database-driven Internet sites. Since the Internet site shall connect to its database much less, the overall server load will be minimized substantially. The third accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online programs like chats and booking websites since it processes data in real time the moment it is entered on the webpage by the users. Depending on the package you choose, these accelerators might be available or may be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated hosting packages shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most efficient web accelerators available. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses, therefore it can increase the speed of any script-driven Internet site. You may use it for any website built with WordPress or Joomla™, for instance. Varnish is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform which can be employed for any sort of Internet sites. With regards to the content, it can easily boost the performance of a website approximately 300%. Node.js is a sophisticated system employed to build scalable Internet programs that process information in real time such as booking portals. Its advantage is that different from similar platforms, it processes data consistently and in small portions instead of waiting for the user to submit one large piece of data. The accelerators may be enabled for any site through the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to select how many instances of each one of them shall work and how much memory they'll employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting

If you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia CP, you shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All three accelerators are integrated in our solutions by default and offer dedicated memory of several hundred MBs. Node.js is used to create scalable applications where real-time interaction is needed - booking sites, online games, chats, etc. It processes the data in small portions as the end user is entering it, as a result it functions much faster than other platforms which wait for the users to enter one big bit of data. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which operates as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it when the same site visitor opens the same webpage again, which can certainly speed any site several times as Varnish functions a lot quicker than any server. Memcached is used for caching API and database responses, consequently it's ideal for script-driven sites such as WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can easily reduce the load on your hosting server as it'll decrease the amount of database queries which your websites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting

If you purchase a dedicated server from us and you opt for Hepsia as the hosting CP, you will be able to use Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All packages come with several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package that you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online apps like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info in real time as the client enters it, which makes it considerably faster than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven website, not only will the Internet site speed up, but also the load on the web server will decrease since there will be considerably less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Rather, it caches entire pages once a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the web server whenever the same visitor opens them afterwards. As Varnish processes web requests much faster than any server, the overall performance of an Internet site using this accelerator can increase around 300%.
