A web accelerator is a software that accelerates an Internet site, normally by caching its content. There are various types of accelerators, but in the typical case such programs cache static content or database responses and supply them in place of the server, hence enhancing the performance of an Internet site greatly. The latter is possible because accelerator apps work faster than a server and not only will a website function better, but the server load shall also decline, which will permit you to run heavy sites with less system resources. We offer three web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will allow you to speed up any kind of Internet site. In comparison, most hosting firms don't provide any web accelerators or provide only 1, which limits your choice of web applications if you'd like to use this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting

If you acquire one of our shared web hosting packages, you'll have 3 widely used web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly using the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our solutions. Varnish is one of the most widely used ones and it could significantly increase the speed of any site as it caches the pages which a website visitor opens for the first time and delivers them every time that guest opens them again. Given that Varnish operates considerably faster than any hosting server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator shall increase substantially. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between an Internet site visitor and a server, so it's comparable to Varnish, but is employed largely for database-driven sites. Since the website will connect to its database a lot less, the overall hosting server load will be minimized considerably. The last accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online applications including chats and booking sites since it processes data in real time the instant it is entered on the webpage by the users. Dependant upon the package you select, these accelerators may be available or might be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated hosting plans shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most powerful web accelerators available on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, therefore it could easily accelerate any script-driven site. You may use it for any site built with WordPress or Joomla™, for example. Varnish is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform that may be employed for any sort of Internet sites. Based on the content, it could boost the performance of a website close to 300%. Node.js is a sophisticated system employed to create scalable Internet programs that process information in real time for instance booking portals. Its advantage is that unlike similar platforms, it processes data continuously and in small portions as opposed to waiting for the user to submit one large chunk of data. The accelerators could be enabled for any website via the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to select how many instances of every one of them shall work and how much memory they shall use.
