Web Accelerators
What exactly do web accelerators do? What can you do to be able to raise your site's loading speed?
A web accelerator is a server-side program which speeds up a website. Such a piece of software can work in different ways depending on the site content, but in the general case all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That's valid for both static and dynamic websites since the cached content can be simple text or database responses and the reward of using a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading Internet site, but also the smaller overall load on the machine. This way, you'll be able to employ a lower-end hosting package that'll also cost less while your visitors could still enjoy fast browsing speeds. Few companies provide web accelerators with their hosting plans and they frequently offer just 1, while we offer three different ones which will allow you to enhance the performance of any type of website substantially.

Web Accelerators in Website Hosting
In case you acquire one of our
website hosting plans, you will have three well-known web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly using the Hepsia CP that is included with our packages. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can significantly increase the speed of any site since it caches the web pages which a site visitor opens for the first time and provides them each time that website visitor opens them again. Since Varnish functions faster than any server, the loading speed of any Internet site using the accelerator will raise noticeably. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a web server, so it's much like Varnish, but is used predominantly for database-driven websites. Since the site will connect to its database a lot less, the overall server load shall be reduced notably. The last accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online apps like chats and booking websites because it processes information in real time the moment it is entered on the site by the users. Depending on the package you select, these accelerators might be available or may be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
In case you choose one of our
semi-dedicated hosting solutions, you will be able to take advantage of Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose application that caches websites the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server if the site visitor opens them again nearly 300% more quickly. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses in order that the server doesn't need to process each request, that makes it suitable for database-driven Internet sites, for example ones designed with Joomla
™ or WordPress. Node.js is employed to produce web applications which work in real-time like chats or accommodation booking portals and it processes each bit of data as soon as the user types it as opposed to waiting for large portions of information to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP that comes with our semi-dedicated solutions will enable you to pick how many instances of every accelerator shall work at a time and what amount of memory they will use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
If you choose your
virtual private server to be integrated with the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most widely used web accelerators. Varnish caches pages the first time they are visited and delivers them whenever the same individual visits them again, which can accelerate any type of website several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script apps for example Joomla
™ and WordPress because it caches database requests and responses, as a consequence the database hosting server won't have to process the exact same webpage every time guests open it in the event that the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for creating real-time applications for example online games and chats. It works faster than similar platforms as it processes the data in little pieces all the time and does not wait for users to input a sizable piece of data that shall need more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are available with all Hepsia-based VPS plans and come with several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
In case you pick Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel for your new dedicated server, you shall have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js available for accelerating your websites. Memcached will be able to minimize the load on the web server by lowering the queries your script-driven websites make as it caches database responses. This web accelerator is ideal for dynamic Internet sites designed with WordPress, Joomla
™ and very similar scripts. Varnish, which is often called an HTTP reverse proxy, caches whole pages the first time a new visitor opens them. It could be used to speed up any sort of website since it provides the cached content much faster than the server any time a website visitor opens the same site again. You could use Node.js for online applications which require real-time server-client interaction such as online chats or booking websites. Different from other platforms that await the user to fill everything on a form, Node.js processes the data little by little as the user fills each and every box, so it works much faster and more efficiently. All
dedicated server packages feature several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these 3 web accelerators.
