A web accelerator is an application that quickens an Internet site, usually by caching its content. There are many kinds of accelerators, but in the general case this sort of applications cache static content or database responses and provide them in lieu of the server, as a consequence improving the performance of a website noticeably. The latter is achievable because accelerator apps work faster than a web server and not simply will an Internet site work better, but the server load shall also lessen, which will allow you to run heavy Internet sites with less system resources. We offer three web accelerators with our hosting solutions, which will allow you to speed up any kind of website. In comparison, most Internet hosting service providers do not provide any web accelerators or offer one, which limits your choice of web apps in case you would like to use this type of software.
Web Accelerators in Hosting
If you purchase one of our hosting plans, you shall have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you shall be able to access them directly through the Hepsia CP which is included with our solutions. Varnish is one of the most well-known ones and it can greatly accelerate any site as it caches the pages a website visitor opens for the first time and delivers them each time that guest opens them again. Since Varnish works considerably faster than any web server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator will grow significantly. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a hosting server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is used mainly for database-driven websites. Because the Internet site will connect to its database way less, the overall web server load will be decreased notably. The last accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online apps like chats and booking websites since it processes info in real time the instant it is entered on the webpage by the users. Based on the plan you choose, these accelerators might be available or could be an optional upgrade.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted inside your semi-dedicated hosting account depending on the nature of the website content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, therefore it is a great option for any script application like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database server won't need to process the same request if multiple users open a site with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any type of content the first time a guest opens an Internet site. If that page is opened again by the exact same website visitor, it will be provided by Varnish at a much better speed compared to the server. Employing this web accelerator can decrease the load created by your websites substantially. Last, but not least, Node.js shall permit you to create scalable web applications such as hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a user to submit a substantial piece of data, but processes whatever the customer is inputting in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available in the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to choose how many instances of every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Web Hosting
We provide Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all virtual private servers that are obtained with the Hepsia Control Panel. Your web server shall also include several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the particular amount would depend on the package deal that you pick. Memcached is employed for script-driven sites because it caches database responses, as a result lowering the amount of queries which a script sends to its database. It can be employed for any script such as WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a highly effective platform for developing web apps such as booking sites and chats. The real-time interaction between end users and a web server is carried out by processing smaller bits of info as soon any user enters anything on the website. By comparison, other platforms wait for customers to enter a lot of data before they process it, as a result they operate slower. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches whole webpages and provides them instead of the server at a faster rate. It is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it can effortlessly speed up any kind of website.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers Hosting
In case you acquire a dedicated server from our firm and you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you will be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All solutions include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online programs including browser games or hotel booking and it processes the info immediately as the user enters it, which makes it much faster than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven site, not simply will the website speed up, but also the load on the server will minimize because there shall be considerably less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it isn't limited to databases. Instead, it caches entire websites once a guest opens them and provides them instead of the server whenever the same visitor opens them afterwards. 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 nearly 300%.
