A web accelerator is an application that speeds up a website, typically by caching its content. There are different sorts of accelerators, but in the common case this kind of applications cache static content or database responses and supply them in lieu of the hosting server, therefore increasing the performance of an Internet site drastically. The latter is possible because accelerator applications work faster than a server and not simply will an Internet site function better, but the server load shall also minimize, which will enable you to run heavy websites with less system resources. We provide three web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will enable you to speed up any sort of site. In comparison, most web hosting businesses don't provide any web accelerators or offer one, which limits your choice of web applications in case you would like to use such software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting

We offer 3 of the most popular web accelerators along with our shared website hosting packages and based on what plan you shall select when you sign up, they could already be available or they may be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most popular one of them and it may be used for any type of Internet site. It caches the pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them at a considerably faster speed compared to the server each time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it could boost the speed of dynamic websites including online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web applications and it operates in real-time, which makes it ideal for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, etc. You shall be able to choose the amount of memory these accelerators shall use and how many instances of each and every one will run from your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account in accordance with the nature of the website content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, so it is a great option for any script app like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database hosting server won't have to process the exact same request if many users open a site with the same content. Varnish is very similar, but it is a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any type of content the first time a guest opens a site. In case this webpage is opened again by the very same website visitor, it'll be provided by Varnish at a much better speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator will minimize the load created by your Internet sites substantially. Last, but not least, Node.js shall permit you to produce scalable web programs like hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it doesn't wait for a user to submit a big piece of info, but processes whatever the user is inputting in real-time. The 3 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 may employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting

In case you get a virtual private server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. All 3 accelerators are integrated within our packages by default and come with dedicated memory of several hundred megabytes. Node.js is employed to develop scalable programs where real-time interaction is needed - booking Internet sites, online flash games, chats, etc. It processes the data in little parts as the user is entering it, as a result it works much faster than other platforms that wait for the end users to enter one sizeable part of information. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that works as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it when the same guest opens the same webpage again, which could speed any Internet site several times since Varnish functions quicker than any web server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, so it's suitable for script-driven sites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can easily decrease the load on your server since it'll decrease the amount of database queries which your sites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are available with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and based on the package which you choose, you will also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can minimize the server load by lowering the amount of queries that have to be addressed as it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on any site that uses an API or a database - as an illustration, any website built with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can easily enhance the performance of any type of site by caching whole pages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator delivers the pages if the same visitor opens them afterwards and since it does that much faster than the server, the website visitor shall be able to browse your website at least a few times faster. For this reason Varnish is often categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an advanced platform that'll allow you to build booking sites, web chats and other apps in which real-time server-user interaction is required. 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 big chunk of info, which makes Node.js considerably quicker than similar applications.
