A web accelerator is a server-side program which speeds up an Internet site. Such a piece of software could function in different ways depending upon the site content, but in the general situation all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. This is valid for both dynamic and static Internet sites as the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator isn't just the faster loading site, but also the decreased overall load on the machine. That way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting solution that will also cost less while your visitors will be able to still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Several service providers supply web accelerators with their hosting plans and they often offer just one, while we offer 3 different ones that will enable you to enhance the performance of any kind of website noticeably.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting

In case you host your Internet sites within a cloud hosting account from us, you'll have 3 popular web accelerators to select 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 decrease the load of such sites drastically. Varnish caches whole webpages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same website visitor opens them again. It does that much more quickly than the web server, so it could raise the loading speed of any site up to 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time applications which works on the web server and not within the visitor's web browser. It is employed for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other programs where lots of data should be processed in real time. The availability of these accelerators depends upon the hosting package that you select - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you will be able to include more instances or more memory for each of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server plans shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - 3 of the most powerful web accelerators on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, thus it could easily increase the speed of any script-driven site. You can use it for any website developed with WordPress or Joomla™, for example. Varnish is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy and it is a general-purpose caching platform which may be used for any sort of sites. With regards to the content, it can raise the performance of a site close to 300%. Node.js is an advanced system used to create scalable Internet applications that process data in real time for example booking portals. Its advantage is that unlike comparable platforms, it processes data continuously and in small portions rather than waiting for the user to submit one large chunk of data. The accelerators may be enabled for any Internet site through the Hepsia CP and you will be able to pick how many instances of each of them shall work and how much memory they shall use.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In the event that you order a dedicated server from our company and you pick Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your websites. All plans include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the actual amount depends on the package that you select. Node.js is used for scalable online applications including browser games or hotel booking and it processes the information immediately as the client enters it, which makes it faster than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven Internet site, not simply will the Internet site work faster, but also the load on the hosting server will decrease since there will be fewer database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it is not limited to databases. Rather, it caches entire pages once a guest opens them and delivers them instead of the hosting server every time the same visitor opens them later. Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests considerably faster than any server, the efficiency of a website using this accelerator could increase up to 300%.
