Varnish is a data caching platform, which is sometimes called a caching HTTP reverse proxy. It’s a web app accelerator that can accelerate the load speed of a site by up to 1000 percent, depending on its content. Every time a visitor opens any page on a site that uses Varnish, the platform caches the page and delivers it instead of the web server when the visitor loads it again. Thus, the browser request from the visitor is not processed by the server and the web page will open considerably faster, since the Varnish caching platform can deliver information many times faster than any web server software. The end result is a substantially faster loading page, which means an improved visitor experience. In case any of the cached pages is updated on the live Internet site, the info that Varnish stores in its memory is updated as well, so the site visitors won’t see old info.

Varnish in Shared Website Hosting

You can take advantage of Varnish’s full potential and optimize your websites’ load speed regardless of the shared website hosting package that you have chosen and you can enable and set up the content caching platform with several clicks of the mouse through the easy-to-use interface offered by our innovative Hepsia Control Panel. During the procedure, you will be able to select two separate things – how many websites will use the Varnish caching platform, i.e. the number of instances, and how much information will be cached, in other words – the amount of memory. The latter is offered in increments of 32 megabytes and is not tied to the number of instances, so you can add more instances with less memory and vice versa. If you’ve got a lot of content on a certain site and you draw lots of website visitors, more memory will guarantee you better results. You may also consider employing a dedicated IP for the Internet sites that will use the Varnish platform. The Hepsia Control Panel will provide you with simple 1-click controls for removing or rebooting any instance, for erasing the cache associated with each Internet site and for checking in-depth system logs.

Varnish in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Linux semi-dedicated hosting plans that we are offering will permit you to employ Varnish once your brand-new semi-dedicated account has been set up, as the content caching platform is available by default. 64 MB of system memory will be allocated to Varnish the moment your account is enabled, so you can use this workload balancing software once your website has been taken online. In case you need more memory, you can add 32 MB at a time from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Upgrades section and it will be allocated to your semi-dedicated server right away. You can also increase the number of the Internet sites that use Varnish, or the so-called ‘instances’, which are not directly linked to the amount of system memory that you use, which suggests that you’ll enjoy more freedom. The caching platform will noticeably lower the load on the machine generated by your websites, so your site visitors can enjoy fast-opening web pages. You will be able to manage the Varnish platform without effort through your Hepsia Control Panel using fast-access controls. You’ll be able to start/stop any of the instances that you’ve got, to delete the cached files associated with any of your sites or to see system log files.

Varnish in VPS Servers

The Varnish caching platform comes by default with all Linux VPS servers offered by our company on the condition that the VPS server is ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, so you can boost the overall performance of your sites with only a couple of clicks. The more powerful the plan, the more memory Varnish will have at its disposal, but even with a less powerful plan, the platform will be able to utilize several hundred MB, so even if you have several different sites, you will notice a great reduction in the server load and a much faster website loading speed. The Varnish caching platform will have to work for a little while as the visitors browse the web pages and once the site content has been cached, you will see the effect. One of the pluses of employing Varnish is that a less powerful and less expensive package will accomplish the same job as a more costly one without the platform, so not only will your sites work better, but you will also save a certain amount of cash.

Varnish in Dedicated Servers

When you need the most powerful web hosting solution and you obtain any of the Linux dedicated servers that we’re offering, you’ll be able to use the Varnish platform to enhance the performance of your Internet sites at no extra fee as long as the dedicated machine is ordered with our cutting-edge Hepsia Control Panel. Its easy-to-work-with interface will permit you to keep an eye on system processes, to clear the cached contents or to restart any instance with one click. The smallest amount of memory that the caching platform can employ to cache website content is 3 GB, which is more than enough for an enormous collection of large-scale websites, so your server will be able to handle a tremendous load while your website visitors are enjoying a smooth browsing experience. As your server will come with a number of dedicated IPs, you’ll be able to make use of Varnish’s maximum potential.
