A web accelerator is a piece of software which accelerates a site usually by caching content and delivering it instead of the hosting server. Such programs may be used for both dynamic and static websites because there are various accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The advantage of employing a web accelerator is that a given Internet site will perform substantially faster without using additional resources. Quite the opposite, such a site will need a lesser amount of resources to operate as the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the hosting server. Contrary to many companies that do not offer web accelerators with their packages or offer only one, we offer 3 different ones that'll enable you to speed up your sites regardless of their type or content.
Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting
Our shared website hosting plans include 3 web accelerators that you can employ depending on the Internet sites which you'd like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which could considerably improve the functionality of dynamic sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches webpages 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 employed for scalable real-time applications including booking sites. Based on the Internet hosting plan you select, these three apps could already be included or may be optional upgrades. In any case, you shall be able to choose how many instances of each one of them shall be at your disposal and how much memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are supplied only by several Internet hosting service providers, including ours, and they could raise the speed of your web apps considerably.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you go for one of our semi-dedicated hosting solutions, you'll be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose app that caches pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the hosting server if the guest opens them again nearly 300% quicker. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so the server does not need to process each request, which makes it suitable for database-driven Internet sites, such as ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to build web programs that work in real-time such as chats or accommodation booking portals and it processes every bit of information the instant the user types it instead of waiting for large chunks of information to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel which is provided with our semi-dedicated packages will enable you to choose how many instances of every accelerator will work at a time and how much memory they'll use.
Web Accelerators in VPS
If you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All 3 accelerators are integrated inside our solutions by default and come with dedicated memory of a few hundred megabytes. Node.js is used to develop scalable programs where real-time interaction is necessary - booking websites, online flash games, chats, etcetera. It processes the information in small bits as the end user is entering it, as a result it works faster than other platforms that wait for the users to submit one large part of information. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that functions as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it when the same website visitor opens the same webpage again, which could speed any site several times due to the fact that Varnish works a lot quicker than any server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, consequently it is suitable for script-driven sites such as WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can decrease the load on your hosting server as it shall reduced the number of database queries that your websites make.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Hosting
Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and in accordance with the package that you opt for, you will also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can lessen the server load by lowering the amount of queries which need to be addressed as it caches database calls and responses. You will be able to use it on every Internet site that uses an API or a database - for instance, any website designed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could boost the performance of any kind of site by caching whole pages the first time a visitor opens them. The accelerator provides the webpages if the same visitor opens them later and given that it does that way quicker than the server, the website visitor shall be able to browse your Internet site at least several times faster. That is why Varnish is sometimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform that will enable you to build booking sites, web chats and other applications in which real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the information in little pieces as the client fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one substantial chunk of information, which makes Node.js much faster than similar applications.
