Web Accelerators
Know what specifically web accelerators are and in what ways you'll be able to make the most of them to improve your website’s efficiency.
A web accelerator is a server-side app which accelerates an Internet site. Such a piece of software can work in different ways depending upon the website content, but in the general situation all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the hosting server. This is valid for both dynamic and static sites 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 site, but also the minimized overall load on the web server. That way, you can use a lower-end hosting package that will also cost less while your visitors can still enjoy fast browsing speeds. Handful of companies offer web accelerators with their hosting plans and they usually offer just 1, while we offer three different ones that will allow you to improve the performance of any kind of Internet site significantly.

Web Accelerators in Hosting
We offer three of the most popular web accelerators along with our
hosting solutions and based upon what plan you shall pick when you sign up, they might already be available or they could be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most well-known one of them and it can be used for any type of Internet site. It caches the pages the first time a website visitor opens them and delivers them at a much faster speed compared to the hosting server each and every time that a visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it can easily boost the speed of dynamic websites including online stores, community forums or social networks. Node.js is used for scalable web programs and it functions in real-time, which makes it suitable for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and so forth. You shall be able to select the amount of memory these accelerators shall use and how many instances of each and every one will run from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
semi-dedicated hosting plans will allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - 3 of the most effective web accelerators on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, thus it could easily accelerate any script-driven Internet site. You may use it for any Internet site 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 could be employed for any kind of sites. Depending on the content, it could boost the performance of an Internet site as much as 300%. Node.js is a sophisticated system used to create scalable Internet applications which process data in real time for instance booking portals. Its advantage is that different from comparable platforms, it processes information constantly and in small bits as opposed to waiting for the user to submit one massive chunk of data. The accelerators may be enabled for any website through the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to select how many instances of each one of them will work and how much memory they will employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all
virtual private servers which are purchased with the Hepsia CP. Your server shall also feature a few hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount would depend on the package that you select. Memcached is employed for script-driven sites as it caches database responses, consequently decreasing the amount of queries that a script sends to its database. It can be used for any script such as WordPress or Joomla
™. Node.js is a powerful platform for building web programs for example booking Internet sites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a web server is done by processing smaller pieces of data as soon any user enters anything on the webpage. In contrast, other platforms wait for users to input a lot of information before they process it, thus they function slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches entire web pages and delivers them instead of the hosting server at a much faster rate. It is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it can speed up any sort of site.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are provided by default with all of our
dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the web hosting Control Panel. These 3 web accelerators feature several gbs of dedicated memory and you can employ them to speed up any type of Internet site. Memcached can drastically minimize the load on the web server if you have script-driven Internet sites since it caches database responses, so it decreases the number of database queries the server has to take care of. Node.js will allow you to build scalable applications with real-time user-server interaction such as chats or dining booking Internet sites. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it processes data the moment the user enters it, so all the data is handled quicker and in small portions. Varnish caches whole Internet pages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them each and every time the same visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any kind of websites. Since it works faster than any server, it can easily speed up an Internet site at least several times and as a result, Varnish is one of the most widely used web accelerators out there.
