A web accelerator is a server-side application that accelerates a website. Such a piece of software can function in different ways depending upon the website content, but in the general situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That's valid for both static and dynamic sites as the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the advantage of using a web accelerator is not just the faster loading website, but also the lessened overall load on the machine. This way, you could use a lower-end hosting plan which will also cost less while your site visitors could still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Handful of businesses offer web accelerators with their hosting packages and they typically offer just one, while we offer 3 different ones that will permit you to improve the performance of any kind of Internet site considerably.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting

When you host your sites within a cloud hosting account from our firm, you'll have 3 popular web accelerators to choose from if you'd like to improve the sites' efficiency. Memcached is used for database-driven sites and it caches the calls and requests between an Internet site and its database, so it can easily lessen the load of such Internet sites substantially. Varnish caches entire pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same guest opens them again. It does that much faster than the server, so it can increase the loading speed of any Internet site nearly 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time applications that works on the server and not in the visitor's Internet browser. It's used for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other apps where plenty of data has to be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends on the hosting solution which you select - they could come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you will be able to include more instances or more memory for each one of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server solutions shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most effective web accelerators available on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, so it can easily accelerate any script-driven Internet site. You can use it for any site developed with WordPress or Joomla™, for instance. Varnish is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform which can be employed for any type of Internet sites. Based on the content, it can raise the performance of a website up to 300%. Node.js is an advanced system employed to build scalable Internet apps that process information in real time for example booking portals. Its advantage is that unlike similar platforms, it processes info consistently and in small pieces instead of waiting for the user to submit one big chunk of data. The accelerators could be enabled for any website via the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to choose how many instances of each one of them will work and how much memory they shall employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

All VPS servers which are integrated with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you'll have several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, that's also known as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches pages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them when that visitor opens them again, hence the server won't need to perform any action. As Varnish operates faster than any web server, a site using this accelerator will work several times quicker. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it is employed for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven apps which store their content inside a database. Node.js is an efficient platform for developing scalable web programs. Any data on an Internet site that uses Node.js is processed in real time, making it a superb choice for dining and accommodation booking Internet sites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, etc.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are provided with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and in accordance with the package deal you select, you will also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can decrease the hosting server load by lowering the amount of queries that have to be dealt with because it caches database calls and responses. You'll be able to use it on any website which uses an API or a database - as an example, any site developed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could improve the performance of any sort of website by caching whole webpages the first time a visitor opens them. The accelerator provides the pages if the exact same visitor opens them later and since it does that much faster than the web server, the website visitor will be able to browse your Internet site at least a few times faster. This is why Varnish is often categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform which will enable you to create booking sites, web chats and other apps in which real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the info in little bits as the user fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one large chunk of data, which makes Node.js considerably faster than similar programs.
