A web accelerator is a server-side program which accelerates an Internet site. Such a piece of software can function in different ways depending on the website content, but in the general case all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. This is valid for both static and dynamic websites as the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator is not just the faster loading website, but also the smaller overall load on the server. That way, you could use a lower-end hosting plan which will also cost less while your visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of companies provide web accelerators with their hosting deals and they usually offer only one, while we offer 3 different ones that will permit you to enhance the performance of any kind of site considerably.
Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting
If you buy one of our shared web hosting solutions, you'll have three popular web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly using the Hepsia Control Panel which is included with our plans. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can considerably increase the speed of any Internet site since it caches the web pages which a website visitor opens for the first time and delivers them each and every time that website visitor opens them again. Given that Varnish operates much faster than any hosting server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator shall raise significantly. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a web server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is used predominantly for database-driven sites. Because the Internet site shall connect to its database a lot less, the overall web server load shall be reduced substantially. The last accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online apps like chats and booking websites as it processes information in real time the moment it is entered on the site by the users. Depending on the plan you choose, these accelerators might be available or might be an optional upgrade.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server solutions shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most powerful web accelerators on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, therefore it can speed up any script-driven website. You may use it for any Internet site developed with WordPress or Joomla™, for example. Varnish is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform that can be employed for any sort of websites. With regards to the content, it could boost the performance of a website close to 300%. Node.js is an innovative system used to create scalable Internet apps which process data in real time for instance booking portals. Its advantage is that in contrast to similar platforms, it processes data consistently and in small parts as opposed to waiting for the user to submit one big piece of data. The accelerators may be enabled for any Internet site from the Hepsia CP and you'll be able to select how many instances of each of them will work and how much memory they will use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
If you choose your VPS server to be integrated with the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most widely used web accelerators. Varnish caches sites the first time they're visited and provides them each time the same person visits them again, which can speed up any type of website several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script apps for instance Joomla™ and WordPress since it caches database requests and responses, as a consequence the database server shall not need to process the same page each and every time visitors open it if the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for creating real-time applications for instance online games and chats. It works faster than similar platforms because it processes the info in tiny portions all the time and does not wait for users to input a large piece of data that shall need more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS solutions and include several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are available by default with all our dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the web hosting Control Panel. These three web accelerators include several gbs of dedicated memory and you may employ them to speed up any type of website. Memcached can greatly lessen the load on the server if you have script-driven Internet sites since it caches database responses, therefore it decreases the amount of database queries that the web server has to take care of. Node.js will permit you to create scalable programs with real-time user-server interaction like chats or dining booking websites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes info the moment the user enters it, so all the information is handled swifter and in small pieces. Varnish caches entire Internet pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them each and every time the same website visitor opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any type of Internet sites. As it works faster than any server, it can easily speed up an Internet site at least several times and for that reason, Varnish is amongst the most popular web accelerators on the market.
