A web accelerator is a server-side app that accelerates a website. Such a piece of software can work in different ways depending on the website content, but in the general case all such apps cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. That is valid for both static and dynamic websites since the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the advantage of employing a web accelerator is not simply the faster loading Internet site, but also the minimized overall load on the web server. That way, you may employ a lower-end hosting solution that will also cost less while your website visitors can still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Several firms provide web accelerators with their hosting plans and they typically offer just one, while we offer 3 different ones which will permit you to boost the performance of any sort of site tremendously.

Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting

In case you host your Internet sites in a shared website hosting account from our company, you'll have 3 popular web accelerators to choose from if you'd like to boost the sites' performance. Memcached is used for database-driven websites and it caches the calls and requests between a website and its database, so it can decrease the load of such sites significantly. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a website visitor opens them and delivers them from there on if the same visitor opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the hosting server, so it can easily raise the loading speed of any Internet site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time apps that works on the server and not inside the visitor's world-wide web browser. It is employed for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other applications where lots of data should be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends on the hosting plan which you select - they could come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you will be able to add more instances or more memory for each of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated hosting plans will permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - 3 of the most powerful web accelerators out there. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, therefore it could easily boost any script-driven Internet site. You may use it for any site designed with WordPress or Joomla™, for instance. Varnish is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform that could be employed for any kind of Internet sites. Depending on the content, it may increase the performance of a site approximately 300%. Node.js is a sophisticated system used to develop scalable Internet applications which process info in real time for instance booking portals. Its advantage is that unlike similar platforms, it processes info constantly and in small bits instead of waiting for the user to submit one large piece of data. The accelerators can be enabled for any Internet site through the Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to select how many instances of each of them will work and how much memory they will employ.

Web Accelerators in VPS

We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all virtual private servers which are ordered with the Hepsia CP. Your server will also feature a few hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount depends on the package deal that you choose. Memcached is employed for script-driven websites as it caches database responses, thus reducing the amount of queries that a script sends to its database. It may be employed for any script like WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a powerful platform for creating web apps for example booking sites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a server is performed by processing little pieces of info as soon any user inputs anything on the website. In contrast, other platforms await users to input a whole lot of info before they process it, therefore they operate more slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches whole pages and provides them instead of the hosting server at a faster rate. It's also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it can easily speed up any sort of Internet site.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Hosting

Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are provided by default with all our dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the web hosting Control Panel. These three web accelerators feature several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you can employ them to speed up any type of site. Memcached can greatly decrease the load on the web server if you have script-driven Internet sites as it caches database responses, thus it decreases the amount of database queries which the server has to deal with. Node.js will permit you to build scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction such as chats or dining booking Internet sites. Its advantage over very similar platforms is that it processes information as soon as the user enters it, so all the data is taken care of quicker and in small parts. Varnish caches whole pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them each time the same visitor opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any kind of sites. Because it operates quicker than any web server, it can easily speed up an Internet site at least several times and for that reason, Varnish is one of the most widely used web accelerators on the market.
