A web accelerator is an application that accelerates an Internet site, normally by caching its content. There are different sorts of accelerators, but in the common case such applications cache static content or database responses and deliver them instead of the server, as a consequence enhancing the performance of an Internet site noticeably. The latter is possible because accelerator applications work faster than a server and not only will an Internet site function better, but the server load shall also decline, which will enable you to run heavy websites with less resources. We provide three web accelerators with our hosting solutions, which will enable you to speed up any sort of site. In comparison, most website hosting firms do not provide any web accelerators or provide only one, which limits your choice of web apps if you want to employ such software.

Web Accelerators in Hosting

Our hosting packages feature 3 web accelerators which you could use depending on the websites that you would like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which can greatly enhance the performance of dynamic sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches webpages and delivers them to the website visitors faster than the server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time applications such as booking sites. With respect to the hosting solution you choose, these three programs might already be included or could be optional upgrades. Regardless, you shall be able to pick how many instances of each of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to use. These accelerators are provided only by a handful of hosting companies, including ours, and they can boost the speed of your web applications drastically.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You will be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted inside your semi-dedicated hosting account in accordance with the nature of the website content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, therefore it is an excellent choice for any script app like WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database web server won't need to process the very same request if many users open a webpage with the same content. Varnish is comparable, but it is a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any kind of content the first time a visitor opens a site. In case this webpage is opened again by the same guest, it'll be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the web server. Using this web accelerator will minimize the load produced by your websites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js shall enable you to create scalable web programs such as hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it does not wait for a customer to submit a substantial piece of information, but processes whatever the user is inputting in real-time. The three web accelerators are available in the Hepsia CP and you will be able to select how many instances of each and every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Web Hosting

If you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia CP, you shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your sites. All 3 accelerators are incorporated inside our solutions by default and offer dedicated memory of several hundred MBs. Node.js is employed to create scalable apps where real-time interaction is required - booking Internet sites, online games, chats, and so on. It processes the information in little bits as the user is entering it, therefore it functions more quickly than other platforms that wait for the end users to input one sizeable part of info. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that works as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it if the same website visitor opens the same webpage again, which could speed any website several times since Varnish functions a lot quicker than any server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, therefore it is suitable for script-driven websites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can decrease the load on your web server since it will reduce the number of database queries that your sites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are available by default with all our dedicated servers that are ordered with Hepsia as the hosting CP. These 3 web accelerators come with several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you could employ them to speed up any type of Internet site. Memcached can greatly minimize the load on the hosting server if you have script-driven Internet sites since it caches database responses, therefore it minimizes the amount of database queries which the web server has to deal with. Node.js shall enable you to build scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction including chats or dining booking sites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes data as soon as the end user enters it, so all the information is managed quicker and in small parts. Varnish caches entire pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them each time the same visitor opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any sort of Internet sites. Because it operates faster than any server, it can easily speed up an Internet site at least several times and as a result, Varnish is one of the most popular web accelerators around.
