A web accelerator is a software program that speeds up a website typically by caching content and supplying it instead of the web server. Such applications may be employed for both static and dynamic websites because there are various accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The main advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given website shall perform substantially faster without employing extra system resources. On the contrary, this kind of a site will require much less resources to operate as the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the web server. Unlike many firms which don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer only 1, we offer 3 different ones which will allow you to speed up your websites whatever their kind or content.

Web Accelerators in Hosting

In case you host your sites inside a hosting account from our company, you will have 3 popular web accelerators to pick from if you would like to boost the sites' functionality. Memcached is used for database-driven Internet sites and it caches the calls and requests between a site and its database, so it can reduce the load of such websites tremendously. Varnish caches entire pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same visitor opens them again. It does that faster than the server, so it could boost the loading speed of any site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs that functions on the web server and not in the visitor's browser. It's used for accommodation booking, chats and other programs where plenty of data needs to be processed in real time. The availability of these accelerators depends upon the hosting plan which you select - they may come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you shall be able to include more instances or more memory for every one of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you pick one of our semi-dedicated hosting solutions, you will be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose application which caches web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them instead of the web server if the site visitor opens them again nearly 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so the web server does not have to process each request, which makes it ideal for database-driven websites, such as ones developed with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to create web apps that function in real-time such as chats or accommodation booking sites and it processes every bit of info the instant the user types it instead of waiting for sizeable chunks of info to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP that is included with our semi-dedicated packages will enable you to pick how many instances of each accelerator will work at a time and how much memory they will use.

Web Accelerators in VPS

All virtual private servers that are integrated with the Hepsia Control Panel come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you shall receive several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, which is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches webpages the first time a guest opens them and delivers them when that visitor opens them again, so the server shall not have to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish functions faster than any hosting server, a website employing this accelerator shall function several times swifter. Memcached is a platform that caches database calls and responses and it's used for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven programs that store their content inside a database. Node.js is a highly effective platform for building scalable web programs. Any information on a website that uses Node.js is processed instantly, which makes it a superb choice for dining and accommodation booking sites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, and so forth.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Hosting

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and based on the plan which you choose, you'll also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached will decrease the web server load by lowering the number of queries which need to be taken care of since it caches database calls and responses. You will be able to use it on any site that uses an API or a database - for example, any website built with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can boost the performance of any sort of website by caching whole webpages the first time a visitor opens them. The accelerator provides the pages if the very same visitor opens them afterwards and given that it does that much quicker than the web server, the visitor shall be able to browse your website at least several times faster. That's why Varnish is sometimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform that will permit you to build booking websites, web chats and other apps in which real-time server-user interaction is required. It processes the data in tiny parts as the client fills different boxes and does not wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one large piece of information, which makes Node.js much faster than similar apps.
