A web accelerator is a software application which speeds up a site usually by caching content and delivering it instead of the hosting server. Such programs can be employed for both static and dynamic Internet sites since there are various accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The benefit of using a web accelerator is that a given Internet site shall perform substantially faster without employing more resources. On the contrary, this type of a website will demand much less resources to operate because the web accelerator will deal with most requests instead of the web server. In contrast to many firms which don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer only 1, we offer three different ones which will permit you to speed up your websites regardless of their type or content.
Web Accelerators in Website Hosting
Our website hosting plans come with three web accelerators that you will be able to use depending on the sites that you would like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which can significantly improve the efficiency of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches webpages and provides them to the site visitors much quicker than the server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time apps such as booking websites. Depending upon the Internet hosting solution you pick, these 3 programs could already be included or may be optional upgrades. In either case, you will be able to choose how many instances of each of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are provided only by a few hosting companies, including ours, and they could boost the speed of your web applications drastically.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the Internet sites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account based on the nature of the site content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, therefore it's an excellent option for any script app such as WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database web server shall not 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 because it caches any type of content the first time a guest opens a page. In case this web page is opened again by the very same guest, it will be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the web server. Employing this web accelerator can reduce the load created by your websites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js will permit you to create scalable web apps such as hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it does not wait for a client to submit a large piece of information, but processes whatever the user is entering in real-time. The three web accelerators are available inside the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to choose how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they may employ.
Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
All virtual private servers that are integrated with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you will receive several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, that is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches web pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them when that visitor opens them again, therefore the web server won't have to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish operates faster than any web server, an Internet site employing this accelerator shall operate several times faster. Memcached is a platform that caches database calls and responses and it is employed for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven programs that store their content in a database. Node.js is a highly effective platform for creating scalable web programs. Any data on a website that uses Node.js is processed in real time, which makes it a fantastic choice for dining and accommodation booking Internet sites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, and so forth.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and based on the package deal that you pick, you'll also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can lessen the hosting server load by lowering the amount of queries which have to be dealt with because it caches database calls and responses. You'll be able to use it on every site that uses an API or a database - for instance, any website developed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could boost the performance of any type of site by caching whole pages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the webpages if the very same visitor opens them afterwards and considering the fact that it does that considerably quicker than the web server, the website visitor will be able to look through your Internet site at least a few times faster. For this reason Varnish is oftentimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform which will allow you to create booking sites, web chats and other programs in which real-time server-user interaction is necessary. It processes the information in tiny portions as the client fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one substantial chunk of info, which makes Node.js way quicker than similar applications.
