A web accelerator is a server-side app that accelerates a website. Such a piece of software can operate in different ways based on the site content, but in the general situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. This is valid for both dynamic and static sites because the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator isn't just the faster loading website, but also the lessened overall load on the machine. This way, you could use a lower-end hosting solution that will also cost less while your site visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of firms offer web accelerators with their hosting plans and they frequently offer only one, while we offer 3 different ones that'll enable you to boost the performance of any kind of website tremendously.

Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting

We provide three of the most well-known web accelerators with our shared website hosting packages and based upon what plan you'll choose when you sign up, they could already be available or they may be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most widely used one of them and it could be used for any type of website. It caches the pages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them at a much faster speed compared to the web server each and every time that a visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it could increase the speed of dynamic Internet sites such as online stores, forums or social networks. Node.js is used for scalable web apps and it works in real-time, which makes it perfect for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, etc. You'll be able to pick how much memory these accelerators shall use and how many instances of each one will run from your Hepsia web hosting CP.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you opt for one of our semi-dedicated server packages, you shall be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three effective web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose app which caches websites the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the hosting server if the visitor opens them again approximately 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses to ensure the server doesn't need to process each and every request, which makes it perfect for database-driven websites, for instance ones designed with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is employed to develop web apps that operate in real-time like chats or accommodation booking sites and it processes each bit of information the moment the user enters it rather than waiting for large chunks of info to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our semi-dedicated packages will allow you to select how many instances of every accelerator shall work at a time and just how much memory they will use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

All VPS servers which are integrated with the Hepsia CP 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, so the web server won't have to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish operates much quicker than any server, an Internet site employing this accelerator will work several times swifter. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it is employed for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven applications which store their content inside a database. Node.js is a powerful platform for creating scalable web programs. Any info on an Internet site that employs Node.js is processed in real time, which makes it a great choice for dining and accommodation booking Internet sites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, etcetera.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

If you select Hepsia as the hosting CP for your new dedicated server, you will have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js available for accelerating your Internet sites. Memcached will be able to reduce the load on the server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make since it caches database responses. This web accelerator is ideal for dynamic sites built with WordPress, Joomla™ and similar scripts. Varnish, which is referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire webpages the first time a new guest opens them. It could be employed to accelerate any kind of site since it provides the cached content considerably faster than the hosting server each time a website visitor opens the same site again. You could employ Node.js for online applications that call for real-time server-client interaction including online chats or booking Internet sites. Different from other platforms that wait for the user to enter everything on a form, Node.js processes the information gradually as the user fills each box, so it operates considerably quicker and more effectively. All dedicated server solutions feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those 3 web accelerators.
