A web accelerator is a server-side app which speeds up a website. Such a piece of software can function in different ways based on the site content, but in the typical case all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the server. That's valid for both static and dynamic sites since the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator isn't simply the faster loading Internet site, but also the decreased overall load on the machine. That way, you could employ a lower-end hosting plan that'll also cost less while your website visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Handful of firms offer web accelerators with their hosting plans and they often offer only one, while we offer three different ones that will allow you to improve the performance of any sort of Internet site tremendously.
Web Accelerators in Website Hosting
If you host your sites in a website hosting account from us, you'll have three popular web accelerators to choose from if you'd like to enhance the sites' performance. Memcached is employed for database-driven sites and it caches the calls and requests between a site and its database, so it could minimize the load of such Internet sites considerably. Varnish caches entire web pages the first time a website visitor opens them and delivers them from there on if the same guest opens them again. It does that much faster than the web server, so it could raise the loading speed of any site up to 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs that works on the server and not in the visitor's browser. It is used for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other applications where loads of data needs to be processed in real time. The availability of these accelerators depends upon the hosting plan which you choose - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you'll be able to include more instances or more memory for each one of them.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated hosting packages shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most powerful web accelerators available. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, thus it can easily speed up any script-driven Internet site. You may use it for any website built with WordPress or Joomla™, for example. Varnish is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it is a general-purpose caching platform that can be used for any kind of sites. Based on the content, it can raise the performance of a site up to 300%. Node.js is an advanced system used to build scalable Internet applications that process data in real time for instance booking portals. Its advantage is that different from similar platforms, it processes information consistently and in small pieces instead of waiting for the user to submit one sizeable chunk of data. The accelerators may be enabled for any Internet site from the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to pick how many instances of each one of them shall work and how much memory they'll employ.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
In the event that you buy a dedicated server from our firm and you choose Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you will be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All plans feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the specific amount depends on the plan you select. Node.js is used for scalable online programs like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data immediately as the client enters it, which makes it much faster than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven Internet site, not only will the website speed up, but also the load on the server will decline since there shall be fewer database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Instead, it caches entire web pages once a visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the server every time the same visitor opens them later. As Varnish processes web requests faster than any web server, the efficiency of a website using this accelerator could increase around 300%.
