A web accelerator is a server-side program that accelerates an Internet site. Such a piece of software may work in different ways depending upon the site content, but in the typical case all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That's valid for both dynamic and static websites because the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the benefit of employing a web accelerator is not just the faster loading site, but also the decreased overall load on the web server. That way, you could use a lower-end hosting solution that'll also cost less while your visitors could still enjoy fast browsing speeds. Several companies provide web accelerators with their hosting plans and they usually offer only 1, while we offer three different ones that'll permit you to improve the performance of any sort of site noticeably.

Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting

In case you get one of our shared web hosting solutions, you shall have three well-known web accelerators at your disposal and you shall be able to access them directly via the Hepsia CP that comes with our solutions. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can greatly speed up any Internet site because it caches the web pages which a website visitor opens for the first time and provides them each time that guest opens them again. Because Varnish works considerably faster than any hosting server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator shall grow noticeably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a website visitor and a hosting server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is used largely for database-driven websites. Since the Internet site shall connect to its database significantly less, the overall web server load shall be minimized notably. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online apps like chats and booking Internet sites since it processes data in real time the moment it is entered on the webpage by the users. Depending on the plan you choose, these accelerators could be available or may be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia CP which comes with our semi-dedicated server packages shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. Memcached is one of the most famous accelerators as it can effortlessly speed up any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, therefore the web server won't have to process identical requests over and over again. The platform is ideal for websites developed with applications such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a highly effective accelerator which caches any sort of content and is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages that are opened by a visitor for the first time and provides them each and every time that same visitor opens them again. Varnish can speed up an Internet site several times simply because it delivers content faster than any web server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time programs such as chats, browser games or social networks. It processes data in little pieces as soon as a user types anything, as a result it works much more quickly than similar platforms in which users submit big chunks of info which need time to be processed. You'll be able to choose the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each and every one of the 3 accelerators through your Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

In the event that you choose your VPS server to be set up with the Hepsia CP, you shall be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three of the most widespread web accelerators. Varnish caches sites the first time they're visited and provides them each and every time the same person visits them again, which will speed up any type of Internet site several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script apps for example Joomla™ and WordPress since it caches database requests and responses, therefore the database web server will not have to process the same webpage each and every time visitors open it in the event that the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for developing real-time programs like online games and chats. It works much faster than similar platforms as it processes the information in little parts all the time and doesn't wait for users to submit a substantial piece of data that shall require more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are provided with all Hepsia-based VPS plans and include several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and depending on the package that you select, you shall also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can minimize the web server load by lowering the number of queries that need to be addressed as it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on every site that uses an API or a database - as an example, any site built with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could boost the performance of any type of website by caching whole webpages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the web pages if the very same visitor opens them afterwards and considering the fact that it does that faster than the web server, the visitor shall be able to surf your website at least a few times faster. For this reason Varnish is often categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform that will allow you to build booking sites, web chats and other apps in which real-time server-user interaction is necessary. It processes the information in tiny parts as the user fills different boxes and does not wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one big piece of information, which makes Node.js much quicker than similar apps.
