A web accelerator is a server-side app that accelerates a website. Such a piece of software can work in different ways based on the website content, but in the general situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. That is valid for both static and dynamic Internet sites as the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator is not only the faster loading Internet site, but also the smaller overall load on the web server. That way, you can employ a lower-end hosting package which will also cost less while your website visitors can still enjoy high browsing speeds. Several service providers provide web accelerators with their hosting packages and they often offer just 1, while we offer three different ones which will allow you to improve the performance of any kind of Internet site substantially.
Web Accelerators in Web Hosting
When you get one of our web hosting solutions, you shall have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you shall be able to access them directly using the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our packages. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it could significantly accelerate any Internet site as it caches the web pages a visitor opens for the first time and delivers them every time that guest opens them again. Since Varnish works way quicker than any hosting server, the loading speed of any Internet site using the accelerator shall raise considerably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a web server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is employed predominantly for database-driven websites. Considering that the site will connect to its database way less, the overall web server load shall be reduced significantly. The last accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online applications like chats and booking websites as it processes data in real time the instant it is entered on the webpage by the users. Depending on the plan you pick, these accelerators could be available or could be an optional upgrade.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted within your semi-dedicated server account based on the nature of the website content. Memcached, for example, caches database requests, therefore it is a great option for any script app such as WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database hosting server won't need to process the same request if a number of users open a page with the same content. Varnish is comparable, but it's a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any type of content the first time a visitor opens an Internet site. In case this webpage is opened again by the same website visitor, it'll be delivered by Varnish at a much better speed compared to the web server. Employing this web accelerator can lessen the load produced by your sites drastically. Last, but not least, Node.js will allow you to create scalable web apps like hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it does not wait for a customer to submit a substantial piece of info, but processes whatever the customer is typing in real-time. The three web accelerators are available in the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to select how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
In case you choose your VPS server to be set up with the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three of the most popular web accelerators. Varnish caches webpages the first time they are visited and provides them every time the same person visits them again, which can speed up any kind of site several times. Memcached is used for dynamic script apps for instance Joomla™ and WordPress as it caches database requests and responses, as a result the database server shall not have to process the exact same website each time guests open it in case the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for building real-time applications like online games and chats. It functions much faster than similar platforms since it processes the information in tiny parts all the time and doesn't wait for users to input a sizable piece of data which shall need more time to be processed. The 3 web accelerators are offered with all Hepsia-based VPS solutions and feature several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In case you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel for your new dedicated server, you shall have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js available for increasing the speed of your sites. Memcached can lessen the load on the hosting server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make as it caches database responses. This web accelerator is good for dynamic sites created with WordPress, Joomla™ and comparable scripts. Varnish, which is referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches whole pages the first time a new guest opens them. It can be used to accelerate any type of site because it delivers the cached content much faster than the hosting server any time a guest opens the same site again. You could use Node.js for online programs which demand real-time server-client interaction like online chats or booking sites. Unlike other platforms which await the user to enter everything on a form, Node.js processes the info bit by bit as the user fills every box, so it operates considerably faster and more efficiently. All dedicated server plans come with several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these 3 web accelerators.
