A web accelerator is a software application which speeds up an Internet site typically by caching content and delivering it instead of the web server. Such programs may be used for both dynamic and static websites since there are a variety of accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The main advantage of employing a web accelerator is that a given Internet site shall perform considerably faster without employing extra system resources. Quite the opposite, such a website will need significantly less resources to work because the web accelerator will take care of most requests instead of the web server. Contrary to many firms which don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer only one, we offer 3 different ones that will allow you to speed up your websites regardless of their kind or content.

Web Accelerators in Hosting

Our hosting plans feature 3 web accelerators that you will be able to employ depending on the sites which you would like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which could drastically enhance the efficiency of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches pages and delivers them to the site visitors much faster than the hosting server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time applications including booking sites. Depending on the web hosting package you select, these three programs could already be included or could be optional upgrades. Regardless, you will be able to select how many instances of each one of them will be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to use. These accelerators are supplied only by a handful of web hosting service providers, including ours, and they can boost the speed of your web applications substantially.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our semi-dedicated server plans shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. Memcached is one of the most well-known accelerators as it can easily increase the speed of any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, therefore the server will not need to process identical requests over and over again. The platform is perfect for sites built with programs such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a highly effective accelerator that caches any type of content and is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages which are opened by a site visitor for the first time and delivers them each and every time that same visitor opens them again. Varnish can speed up a site several times since it delivers content quicker than any web server. Node.js is a platform used for scalable real-time programs such as chats, Internet browser games or social networks. It processes information in little pieces as soon as a user types anything, as a result it operates considerably faster than similar platforms in which users submit big pieces of info which need time to be processed. You can pick the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the three accelerators via your Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

All VPS servers that are integrated with the Hepsia Control Panel come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you shall get several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, which is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy, caches webpages the first time a guest opens them and delivers them in case that visitor opens them again, hence the web server shall not need to perform any action. Because Varnish functions considerably faster than any web server, an Internet site using this accelerator will function several times swifter. Memcached is a platform that caches database calls and responses and it is used for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven applications which store their content within a database. Node.js is a highly effective platform for developing scalable web apps. Any info on an Internet site that uses Node.js is processed in real time, which makes it a superb choice for dining and accommodation booking websites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, and so forth.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are available with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and based on the plan you select, you'll also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can lessen the web server load by lowering the amount of queries which have to be taken care of because it caches database calls and responses. You'll be able to use it on every site which uses an API or a database - for instance, any site designed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can easily improve 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 same visitor opens them later and because it does that considerably quicker than the web server, the visitor shall be able to surf your Internet site at least a couple of times faster. That's why Varnish is oftentimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform that will allow you to build booking websites, web chats and other programs where real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the data in little portions as the client fills different boxes and does not wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one massive chunk of info, which makes Node.js considerably faster than similar apps.
