A web accelerator is an application which accelerates a website, typically by caching its content. There are various kinds of accelerators, but in the common case this kind of applications cache static content or database responses and supply them instead of the server, thus enhancing the performance of a website greatly. The latter can be done because accelerator apps work faster than a web server and not only will an Internet site function better, but the server load shall also decrease, which will enable you to run heavy Internet sites with less system resources. We offer three web accelerators with our hosting solutions, which will allow you to accelerate any type of site. In comparison, most hosting firms don't provide any web accelerators or provide only one, which limits your choice of web apps in the event that you want to use this kind of software.

Web Accelerators in Hosting

Our hosting plans include 3 web accelerators which you can use depending on the sites that you'd like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which can tremendously improve the performance of dynamic sites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches webpages and delivers them to the visitors way quicker than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform used for scalable real-time applications including booking sites. Based on the hosting package you choose, these three programs might already be included or might be optional upgrades. Either way, you will be able to pick how many instances of each one of them shall be at your disposal and how much memory they ought to employ. These accelerators are provided only by a few Internet hosting firms, including ours, and they can increase the speed of your web programs considerably.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account depending on the nature of the website content. Memcached, for example, caches database requests, therefore it is a great choice for any script app like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database server will not need to process the exact same request if multiple users open a website with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator because it caches any kind of content the first time a visitor opens an Internet site. If that webpage is opened again by the exact same guest, it shall be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the server. Using this web accelerator shall reduce the load created by your websites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js shall allow you to create scalable web apps such as hotel booking sites or chats. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it does not wait for a client to submit a large piece of information, but processes whatever the customer is inputting in real-time. The three web accelerators are available in the Hepsia Control Panel and you shall be able to select how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they'll employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting

If you get a virtual private server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. All three accelerators are included in our solutions by default and come with dedicated memory of several hundred megabytes. Node.js is employed to build scalable programs where real-time interaction is necessary - booking websites, online flash games, chats, and so on. It processes the data in smaller portions as the end user is entering it, therefore it functions more quickly than other platforms which wait for the users to enter one big part of data. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator which functions as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it when the same guest opens the same page again, which can easily speed any Internet site several times as Varnish works a lot quicker than any hosting server. Memcached is used for caching API and database responses, therefore it is suitable for script-driven websites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator will be able to lessen the load on your hosting server as it will reduced the amount of database queries your websites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting

Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are offered by default with all of our dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the website hosting Control Panel. These 3 web accelerators feature several gbs of dedicated memory and you may use them to speed up any type of website. Memcached can substantially reduce the load on the server if you have script-driven Internet sites as it caches database responses, thus it lessens the number of database queries the hosting server has to deal with. Node.js shall allow you to develop scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction like chats or dining booking websites. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it processes data as soon as the end user enters it, so all the data is taken care of quicker and in small portions. Varnish caches entire Internet pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them every time the same website visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any kind of websites. Since it functions faster than any server, it could speed up a website at least several times and as a result, Varnish is among the most widely used web accelerators available on the market.
