A web accelerator is a server-side app which accelerates a site. Such a piece of software could function in different ways based on the site content, but in the typical situation all such programs cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. That is valid for both dynamic and static Internet sites as the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the benefit of employing a web accelerator is not only the faster loading site, but also the decreased overall load on the server. That way, you'll be able to use a lower-end hosting package that'll also cost less while your website visitors will be able to still enjoy fast browsing speeds. Several companies provide web accelerators with their hosting plans and they frequently offer only one, while we offer 3 different ones that will enable you to boost the performance of any type of site considerably.
Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting
We provide 3 of the most well-known web accelerators with our cloud hosting solutions and depending on what plan you will select when you sign up, they might already be available or they might be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most well-known one of them and it can be used for any type of website. It caches the pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them at a 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 can boost the speed of dynamic websites including online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web applications and it functions in real-time, which makes it excellent for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, etcetera. You'll be able to choose how much memory these accelerators shall use and how many instances of each shall run from your Hepsia Internet hosting Control Panel.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you pick one of our semi-dedicated server packages, you will be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose program which caches websites the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server if the visitor opens them again nearly 300% quicker. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so the server doesn't have to process each and every request, that makes it perfect for database-driven websites, for instance ones developed with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to create web programs that function in real-time like chats or accommodation booking portals and it processes every bit of info the instant the user types it as opposed to waiting for sizeable chunks of data to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our semi-dedicated plans shall allow you to choose how many instances of every accelerator shall work at a time and how much memory they'll use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
All VPS servers which are set up with the Hepsia Control Panel come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you will have several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, which is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches web pages the first time a guest opens them and delivers them when that guest opens them again, hence the hosting server shall not need to perform any action. Since Varnish operates much quicker than any server, a website using this accelerator shall operate several times swifter. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it is used for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven programs that store their content in a database. Node.js is a highly effective platform for creating scalable web programs. Any information on a site which employs Node.js is processed in real time, making it an excellent choice for dining and accommodation booking websites, web-based chats, Internet browser games, etcetera.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and in accordance with the plan you pick, you will also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached shall lessen the hosting server load by lowering the number of queries which have to be addressed as it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on every site that uses an API or a database - as an illustration, any site created with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could enhance the performance of any kind of website by caching whole webpages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator provides the pages if the very same visitor opens them later and because it does that considerably quicker than the server, the website visitor will be able to browse your site at least a couple of times faster. That is why Varnish is sometimes categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform which will permit you to develop booking sites, web chats and other apps where real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the data in little parts as the client fills different boxes and does not wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one big chunk of data, which makes Node.js much quicker than similar programs.
