A web accelerator is a piece of software which speeds up a site generally by caching content and providing it instead of the web server. Such apps can be used for both static and dynamic Internet sites because there are various accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given website will perform noticeably faster without using extra system resources. Quite the opposite, such a site will require much less resources to function since the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the web server. Unlike many companies that do not offer web accelerators with their solutions or offer just one, we offer three different ones which will enable you to speed up your Internet sites whatever their type or content.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Web Hosting

In case you acquire one of our cloud web hosting plans, you will have 3 widely used web accelerators at your disposal and you shall be able to access them directly through the Hepsia CP that is included with our packages. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can greatly accelerate any website since it caches the web pages that a site visitor opens for the first time and provides them each time that website visitor opens them again. Given that Varnish functions much faster than any web server, the loading speed of any site using the accelerator shall raise noticeably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a site visitor and a hosting server, so it is comparable to Varnish, but is used primarily for database-driven sites. Considering that the Internet site shall connect to its database significantly less, the overall hosting server load shall be reduced considerably. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online apps such as chats and booking websites since it processes data in real time the instant it is entered on the webpage by the users. Dependant upon the plan you pick, these accelerators might be available or could be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted within your semi-dedicated hosting account depending on the nature of the site content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, so it is a great choice for any script app such as WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database hosting server will not need to process the very same request if many users open a site with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it is a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any sort of content the first time a visitor opens a page. In case this web page is opened again by the exact same guest, it'll be delivered by Varnish at a much better speed compared to the hosting server. Employing this web accelerator can reduce the load generated by your sites tremendously. Last, but not least, Node.js shall permit you to build scalable web applications like hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it does not wait for a user to submit a sizable piece of data, but processes whatever the user is typing in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available within the Hepsia CP and you'll be able to choose how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can employ.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Hosting

In the event that you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel for your new dedicated server, you shall have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js readily available for accelerating your sites. Memcached will be able to minimize the load on the web server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make since it caches database responses. This web accelerator is good for dynamic websites created with WordPress, Joomla™ and similar scripts. Varnish, which is known as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire websites the first time a new website visitor opens them. It can be employed to accelerate any kind of site because it delivers the cached content much faster than the hosting server each time a guest opens the same page again. You can employ Node.js for online applications which demand real-time server-client interaction such as online chats or booking Internet sites. Different from other platforms which await the user to enter everything on a form, Node.js processes the info little by little as the user fills each and every box, so it functions much faster and more efficiently. All dedicated server solutions include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those 3 web accelerators.
