A web accelerator is a piece of software which accelerates a website usually by caching content and delivering it instead of the hosting server. Such programs may be used for both dynamic and static sites since there are a variety of accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The main advantage of employing a web accelerator is that a given site will perform substantially faster without using extra resources. On the contrary, this kind of a website will need a lesser amount of resources to function since the web accelerator will deal with most requests instead of the hosting server. In contrast to many companies that don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer only 1, we offer three different ones which will allow you to speed up your Internet sites whatever their type or content.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Web Hosting
We provide three of the most well-known web accelerators along with our cloud web hosting solutions and based on what plan you shall select when you sign up, they may already be available or they could be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most popular one of them and it could be used for any type of Internet site. It caches the pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them at a faster speed compared to the hosting server every time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is employed to cache API and database calls, so it can boost the speed of dynamic Internet sites such as online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web apps and it functions in real-time, which makes it perfect for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and so forth. You will be able to pick what amount of memory these accelerators shall employ and how many instances of each will run from your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
The Hepsia CP which comes with our semi-dedicated server plans shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. Memcached is among the most popular accelerators since it can easily speed up any API or database-driven site by caching requests and responses, as a result the hosting server won't need to process identical requests again and again. The platform is suitable for websites developed with apps like Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is an effective accelerator which caches any kind of content and is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages that are opened by a site visitor for the first time and provides them each time that same site visitor opens them again. Varnish can easily accelerate a site several times because it delivers content faster than any server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time apps like chats, web browser games or social networks. It processes information in small bits as soon as a user enters something, as a result it operates much faster than similar platforms where users submit large parts of info that need time to be processed. You could pick the number of instances and the dedicated memory for every one of the three accelerators through your Control Panel.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are available by default with all our dedicated servers that are ordered with Hepsia as the hosting CP. These three web accelerators include several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you could use them to speed up any sort of Internet site. Memcached can greatly minimize the load on the hosting server if you have script-driven Internet sites as it caches database responses, therefore it minimizes the number of database queries which the web server has to deal with. Node.js will permit you to build scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction including chats or dining booking websites. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it processes data the moment the user enters it, so all the info is taken care of quicker and in small pieces. Varnish caches entire webpages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them each time the same guest opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any sort of Internet sites. Since it functions quicker than any web server, it can easily speed up a site at least several times and as a result, Varnish is among the most popular web accelerators on the market.
