A web accelerator is a server-side app that quickens a site. Such a piece of software can work in different ways depending upon the website content, but in the typical case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That's valid for both static and dynamic websites as the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading Internet site, but also the lessened overall load on the machine. This way, you may use a lower-end hosting package which will also cost less while your visitors can still enjoy fast browsing speeds. Few service providers offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they frequently offer only one, while we offer three different ones that will permit you to improve the performance of any sort of website considerably.
Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
When you get one of our shared hosting packages, you will have three widely used web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly through the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our solutions. Varnish is one of the most well-known ones and it could significantly increase the speed of any site since it caches the pages that a 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 will increase noticeably. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a hosting server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is employed mainly for database-driven Internet sites. Since the site will connect to its database a lot less, the overall hosting server load shall be reduced significantly. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online apps like chats and booking Internet sites as it processes information in real time as soon as it is entered on the site by the users. Dependant upon the plan you select, these accelerators may be available or may be an optional upgrade.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted within your semi-dedicated server account based on the nature of the website content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, so it is a fantastic option for any script application like WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database server shall not have to process exactly the same request if many users open a page with the same content. Varnish is very similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any kind of content the first time a guest opens a page. If this page is opened again by the very same visitor, it'll be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the web server. Using this web accelerator shall minimize the load created by your websites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js will allow you to create scalable web apps like hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a user to submit a large piece of information, but processes whatever the client is inputting in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available in the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to choose how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In case you choose Hepsia as the hosting CP for your new dedicated server, you'll have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js at your disposal for speeding up your sites. Memcached can easily lessen the load on the web server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make since it caches database responses. This web accelerator is perfect for dynamic websites designed with WordPress, Joomla™ and comparable scripts. Varnish, which is referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire webpages the first time a new visitor opens them. It can be employed to speed up any type of site as it delivers the cached content much faster than the hosting server each time a guest opens the same site again. You'll be able to use Node.js for online programs that require real-time server-client interaction such as online chats or booking websites. Different from other platforms which await the user to fill everything on a form, Node.js processes the data piece by piece as the user fills each box, so it works much faster and more effectively. All dedicated server packages feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those three web accelerators.
