A web accelerator is a server-side application which accelerates a site. Such a piece of software could work in different ways based on the website content, but in the typical case all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. That is valid for both static and dynamic websites as the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the benefit of using a web accelerator isn't simply the faster loading website, but also the decreased overall load on the web server. That way, you could use a lower-end hosting plan that'll also cost less while your visitors will be able to still enjoy high browsing speeds. Several companies offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they usually offer only 1, while we offer 3 different ones that will allow you to improve the performance of any type of site significantly.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting
Our cloud hosting solutions feature 3 web accelerators which you will be able to employ depending on the sites that you would like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which could drastically enhance the performance of dynamic websites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches webpages and provides them to the website visitors way quicker than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time programs such as booking websites. With respect to the hosting package you select, these 3 applications may already be included or might be optional upgrades. In either case, you'll be able to select how many instances of every one of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are provided only by several Internet hosting companies, including ours, and they can easily boost the speed of your web apps considerably.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account based on the nature of the site content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, therefore it is an excellent choice for any script app like WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database server won't need to process the very same request if a number of users open a site with the same content. Varnish is very similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any sort of content the first time a website visitor opens a site. If this page is opened again by the exact same website visitor, it'll be provided by Varnish at a much better speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator will decrease the load generated by your websites considerably. Last, but not least, Node.js shall permit you to produce scalable web applications like hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it does not wait for a customer to submit a sizable piece of data, but processes whatever the user is entering in real-time. The three web accelerators are available inside the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to pick how many instances of every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they may use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
In case you get a virtual private server with the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. All 3 accelerators are integrated in our plans by default and offer dedicated memory of several hundred megabytes. Node.js is used to create scalable programs where real-time interaction is required - booking Internet sites, online games, chats, etcetera. It processes the information in smaller parts as the end user is entering it, as a result it operates more quickly than other platforms that wait for the users to enter one large part of info. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that works as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it in the event that the same guest opens the same website again, which can easily speed any Internet site several times because Varnish operates a lot quicker than any hosting server. Memcached is used for caching API and database responses, so it is appropriate for script-driven sites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can decrease the load on your hosting server because it shall lower the amount of database queries which your Internet sites make.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are provided by default with all of our dedicated servers that are ordered with Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel. These three web accelerators come with several gbs of dedicated memory and you may use them to speed up any kind of Internet site. Memcached can greatly decrease the load on the server if you have script-driven sites since it caches database responses, therefore it decreases the amount of database queries which the hosting server has to deal with. Node.js will enable you to develop scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction such as chats or dining booking sites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes data the moment the user enters it, so all the data is managed swifter and in small bits. Varnish caches whole Internet pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them each time the same website visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any type of Internet sites. As it functions quicker than any web server, it could speed up a site at least several times and as a result, Varnish is one of the most widely used web accelerators available on the market.
