A web accelerator is a program that speeds up an Internet site, typically by caching its content. There are different sorts of accelerators, but in the general case this kind of programs cache static content or database responses and supply them in lieu of the web server, thus increasing the performance of an Internet site noticeably. The latter is possible because accelerator programs work faster than a hosting server and not simply will a site function better, but the server load shall also minimize, which will enable you to run heavy Internet sites with less resources. We offer 3 web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will allow you to increase the speed of any kind of site. In comparison, most hosting companies do not offer any web accelerators or provide just one, which limits your choice of web applications in the event that you'd like to use this kind of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting plans include three web accelerators that you will be able to employ depending on the sites which you would like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which could drastically enhance the functionality of dynamic Internet sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches pages and provides them to the visitors much quicker than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform used for scalable real-time programs such as booking websites. With respect to the hosting package you select, these three applications might already be included or might be optional upgrades. Either way, you shall be able to pick how many instances of each one of them shall be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to use. These accelerators are offered only by a handful of web hosting firms, including ours, and they could increase the speed of your web applications significantly.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The Hepsia CP that comes with our semi-dedicated hosting plans shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your sites. Memcached is among the most well known accelerators since it can speed up any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, as a result the server shall not need to process identical requests again and again. The platform is suitable for Internet sites created with programs like Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is an efficient accelerator which caches any type of content and is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches pages which are opened by a website visitor for the first time and provides them each time that very same guest opens them again. Varnish can certainly accelerate a website several times simply because it delivers content quicker than any web server. Node.js is a platform used for scalable real-time applications such as chats, web browser games or social networks. It processes information in little parts as soon as a user types something, so it functions much faster than similar platforms in which users submit sizeable pieces of information that need time to be processed. You can pick the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the 3 accelerators via your CP.

Web Accelerators in VPS Web Hosting

In case you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia CP, you will be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. All 3 accelerators are included within our packages by default and offer dedicated memory of several hundred MBs. Node.js is employed to build scalable programs where real-time interaction is necessary - booking sites, online flash games, chats, and so on. It processes the information in little parts as the user is entering it, therefore it operates more quickly than other platforms which wait for the end users to enter one large part of information. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which functions as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it when the same site visitor opens the same page again, which could speed any site several times because Varnish operates quicker than any web server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, consequently it is appropriate for script-driven Internet sites such as WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can lessen the load on your server as it will reduce the number of database queries which your websites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers Hosting

In case you obtain a dedicated server from our company and you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you will be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your Internet sites. All plans include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package that you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online applications including browser games or hotel booking and it processes the information immediately as the client enters it, which makes it much faster than very similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven Internet site, not only will the site work faster, but also the load on the server will decline as there will be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not at all limited to databases. Rather, it caches whole web pages once a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the server each and every time the same visitor opens them later. Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests much faster than any server, the overall performance of a site using this accelerator could increase up to 300%.
