A web accelerator is a software application which speeds up an Internet site typically by caching content and supplying it instead of the hosting server. Such applications could be used for both static and dynamic sites because there are various accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given site shall perform noticeably faster without employing extra resources. Just the opposite, this kind of a website will require a lesser amount of resources to work because the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the server. Unlike many companies which don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer only 1, we offer 3 different ones that will permit you to speed up your sites whatever their style or content.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting
Our cloud website hosting plans include three web accelerators which you will be able to use depending on the sites which you would like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which could drastically boost the efficiency of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches webpages and provides them to the site visitors considerably faster than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time applications such as booking websites. Based on the hosting plan you select, these three apps could already be included or may be optional upgrades. Regardless, you'll be able to choose how many instances of each of them will be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to use. These accelerators are offered only by a few web hosting companies, including ours, and they could raise the speed of your web apps substantially.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
The Hepsia CP which is included with our semi-dedicated server packages shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. Memcached is one of the most well known accelerators since it can speed up any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, therefore the hosting server shall not need to process identical requests time and time again. The platform is perfect for Internet sites created with applications such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a powerful 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 every time that very same site visitor opens them again. Varnish can certainly accelerate a site several times simply because it delivers content quicker than any hosting server. Node.js is a platform used for scalable real-time programs such as chats, Internet browser games or social networks. It processes data in small parts the instant a user enters anything, so it operates faster than similar platforms in which users submit big parts of information which require time to be processed. You'll be able to select the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the 3 accelerators through your CP.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers which are obtained with the Hepsia Control Panel. Your web server will also feature a few hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the particular amount depends on the plan that you pick. Memcached is employed for script-driven Internet sites as it caches database responses, thus decreasing the number of queries which a script sends to its database. It may be employed for any script including WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a highly effective platform for creating web applications such as booking sites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a hosting server is carried out by processing little pieces of info as soon any user enters anything on the website. In contrast, other platforms wait for customers to enter a lot of info before they process it, thus they function slower. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator which caches entire web pages and delivers them instead of the web server at a much faster rate. It is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can speed up any type of site.
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 website hosting CP. These 3 web accelerators come with several gbs of dedicated memory and you can use them to speed up any kind of site. Memcached can greatly lessen the load on the web server if you have script-driven websites as it caches database responses, therefore it lessens the number of database queries which the server has to take care of. Node.js will allow you to build scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction such as chats or dining booking sites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes information as soon as the user enters it, so all the information is taken care of faster and in small bits. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them every time the same website visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any type of Internet sites. Since it functions quicker than any hosting server, it can speed up an Internet site at least several times and due to this fact, Varnish is amongst the most popular web accelerators available on the market.
