A web accelerator is a server-side application that accelerates an Internet site. Such a piece of software can function in different ways depending upon the site content, but in the general situation all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the server. This is valid for both dynamic and static Internet sites as the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the benefit of employing a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading website, but also the smaller overall load on the hosting server. That way, you'll be able to use a lower-end hosting plan that will also cost less while your site visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of service providers provide web accelerators with their hosting plans and they typically offer only one, while we offer 3 different ones that'll allow you to improve the performance of any type of site substantially.

Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting

If you buy one of our shared website hosting packages, you shall have three popular web accelerators at your disposal and you'll be able to access them directly via the Hepsia Control Panel which is included with our packages. Varnish is one of the most well-known ones and it could tremendously accelerate any site since it caches the web pages which a site visitor opens for the first time and delivers them every time that visitor opens them again. Given that Varnish works much faster than any server, the loading speed of any site using the accelerator will raise significantly. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between an Internet site visitor and a hosting server, so it's comparable to Varnish, but is employed largely for database-driven sites. Because the Internet site will connect to its database much less, the overall hosting server load shall be reduced significantly. The last accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online applications like chats and booking Internet sites since it processes data in real time the instant it is entered on the website by the users. Dependant upon the package you select, these accelerators might be available or could be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server packages shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - 3 of the most powerful web accelerators out there. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses, thus it could easily increase the speed of any script-driven website. You could use it for any site designed with WordPress or Joomla, for example. Varnish is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform that may be employed for any sort of Internet sites. Based on the content, it may boost the performance of an Internet site roughly 300%. Node.js is a sophisticated system used to create scalable Internet apps that process data in real time such as booking portals. Its advantage is that different from comparable platforms, it processes info constantly and in small parts instead of waiting for the user to submit one big piece of data. The accelerators could be enabled for any website through the Hepsia Control Panel and you'll be able to select how many instances of each one of them will work and how much memory they'll employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

If you choose your VPS server to be integrated with the Hepsia CP, you will be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most commonly used web accelerators. Varnish caches websites the first time they're visited and provides them every time the same person visits them again, which can accelerate any type of site several times. Memcached is used for dynamic script programs for example Joomla and WordPress since it caches database requests and responses, as a result the database server will not need to process the very same webpage every time guests open it if the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for building real-time apps for example online games and chats. It operates faster than similar platforms as it processes the information in little parts all the time and doesn't wait for users to input a substantial piece of data which shall require more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS plans and come with several hundred MBs of dedicated memory.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In case you choose Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel for your new dedicated server, you will have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js available for increasing the speed of your Internet sites. Memcached can decrease the load on the web server by lowering the queries your script-driven Internet sites make because it caches database responses. This web accelerator is good for dynamic websites designed with WordPress, Joomla and similar scripts. Varnish, which is known as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches whole sites the first time a new guest opens them. It can be employed to speed up any sort of Internet site as it delivers the cached content much quicker than the web server each time a website visitor opens the same site again. You could employ Node.js for online applications which call for real-time server-client interaction like online chats or booking sites. Unlike other platforms that await the user to enter everything on a form, Node.js processes the information bit by bit as the user fills each and every box, so it works much faster and more efficiently. All dedicated server packages come with several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those 3 web accelerators.
