A web accelerator is a software that quickens an Internet site, usually by caching its content. There are different types of accelerators, but in the typical case this sort of programs cache static content or database responses and deliver them in place of the server, thus improving the performance of a site drastically. The latter can be done because accelerator programs work faster than a web server and not only will a website work better, but the server load will also lessen, which will permit you to run heavy websites with less system resources. We offer 3 web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will permit you to speed up any kind of website. In comparison, most hosting firms don't provide any web accelerators or provide just one, which limits your choice of web apps if you'd like to use this type of software.
Web Accelerators in Shared Web Hosting
In case you get one of our shared web hosting solutions, you will have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you'll be able to access them directly via the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our solutions. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can significantly speed up any Internet site because it caches the pages a site visitor opens for the first time and delivers them each and every time that guest opens them again. Given that Varnish functions way quicker than any hosting server, the loading speed of any site using the accelerator shall increase significantly. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a site visitor and a web server, so it is comparable to Varnish, but is employed largely for database-driven Internet sites. Since the Internet site shall connect to its database significantly less, the overall server load will be reduced notably. The last accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online apps including chats and booking sites since it processes data in real time the moment it is entered on the webpage by the users. Dependant upon the package you select, these accelerators may be available or may be an optional upgrade.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the Internet sites hosted within your semi-dedicated server account depending on the nature of the site content. Memcached, for instance, caches database requests, so it is an excellent choice for any script app like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database server will not have to process exactly the same request if multiple users open a website with the same content. Varnish is very similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any type of content the first time a website visitor opens a page. In case that webpage is opened again by the same website visitor, it'll be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the hosting server. Using this web accelerator will lessen the load produced by your sites significantly. Last, but not least, Node.js will enable you to create scalable web applications like hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it doesn't wait for a client to submit a big piece of data, but processes whatever the customer is inputting in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available within the Hepsia Control Panel and you shall be able to select how many instances of every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they can use.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers that are obtained with the Hepsia CP. Your server shall also include several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the actual amount would be determined by the plan that you choose. Memcached is employed for script-driven Internet sites because it caches database responses, thus decreasing the number of queries which a script sends to its database. It could be employed for any script including WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a highly effective platform for developing web programs such as booking websites and chats. The real-time interaction between end users and a server is done by processing little parts of information as soon any user enters anything on the webpage. In comparison, other platforms wait for users to input a whole lot of information before they process it, thus they work slower. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches whole pages and provides them instead of the web server at a faster rate. It is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can speed up any sort of Internet site.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are provided with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting CP and depending on the plan you pick, you will also have several gigabytes of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can reduce the web server load by lowering the number of queries which have to be dealt with since it caches database calls and responses. You will be able to use it on every website that uses an API or a database - for example, any website developed with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish could enhance the performance of any kind of Internet site by caching whole pages the first time a visitor opens them. The accelerator provides the web pages if the very same visitor opens them later on and since it does that way quicker than the hosting server, the website visitor will be able to surf your website at least a few times faster. That is why Varnish is often categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is an innovative platform that will permit you to build booking websites, web chats and other applications in which real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the data in tiny portions as the client fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one substantial piece of data, which makes Node.js considerably faster than similar programs.
