A web accelerator is a program that speeds up an Internet site, typically by caching its content. There are various kinds of accelerators, but in the common case this sort of apps cache static content or database responses and provide them instead of the web server, thus increasing the performance of a site significantly. The latter can be done because accelerator programs work faster than a web server and not only will a website operate better, but the server load shall also decline, which will allow you to run heavy Internet sites with less resources. We provide three web accelerators with our hosting plans, which will permit you to accelerate any kind of site. In comparison, most Internet hosting companies do not offer any web accelerators or offer only 1, which limits your choice of web apps in case you would like to employ such software.
Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
We provide 3 of the most well-known web accelerators together with our shared hosting solutions and based on what plan you will pick when you sign up, they could already be available or they may be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most popular one of them and it may be used for any sort of site. It caches the pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them at a considerably faster speed compared to the hosting server each and every time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it can increase the speed of dynamic websites like online stores, forums or social networks. Node.js is used for scalable web apps and it works in real-time, which makes it excellent for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and many others. You'll be able to select what amount of memory these accelerators shall employ and how many instances of each and every one will run from your Hepsia website hosting CP.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
All VPS servers that are incorporated with the Hepsia Control Panel come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you shall receive several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, that is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy, caches pages the first time a guest opens them and delivers them if that visitor opens them again, therefore the hosting server won't have to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish operates faster than any hosting server, an Internet site using this accelerator shall function several times swifter. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it's used for WordPress, Joomla™ and other script-driven programs that store their content in a database. Node.js is a powerful platform for building scalable web programs. Any info on a website that employs Node.js is processed in real time, which makes it a fantastic choice for dining and accommodation booking websites, web-based chats, web browser games, and so forth.
