Web Accelerators
Understand what exactly web accelerators are and the way you are able to take advantage of them to boost your web site’s performance.
A web accelerator is a software which speeds up a website, normally by caching its content. There are many types of accelerators, but in the general case this sort of apps cache static content or database responses and supply them in lieu of the web server, therefore enhancing the performance of a website significantly. The latter is achievable because accelerator programs work faster than a web server and not simply will an Internet site function better, but the server load will also lessen, which will permit you to run heavy websites with less system resources. We offer three web accelerators with our hosting plans, which will allow you to increase the speed of any type of website. In comparison, most website hosting companies do not offer any web accelerators or provide only one, which limits your choice of web applications if you would like to employ this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
We provide 3 of the most popular web accelerators with our
shared hosting services and based on what plan you will select when you sign up, they might already be available or they might be an optional upgrade. Varnish is the most widely used one of them and it could be used for any type of site. It caches the pages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them at a considerably faster speed compared to the web server each time that a website visitor opens them again. Memcached is used to cache API and database calls, so it could increase the speed of dynamic sites such as online stores, forums or social networks. Node.js is employed for scalable web applications and it works in real-time, which makes it excellent for server-side data processing - chats, browser games, booking portals, and so forth. You will be able to choose just how much memory these accelerators will employ and how many instances of each and every one shall run from your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you go for one of our
semi-dedicated hosting solutions, you will be able to employ Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three efficient web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose app which caches webpages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them instead of the web server if the site visitor opens them again nearly 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses in order that the web server does not have to process every request, that makes it perfect for database-driven websites, such as ones built with Joomla
™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to develop web programs that function in real-time such as chats or accommodation booking websites and it processes every bit of info as soon as the user types it rather than waiting for big portions of data to be accumulated. The Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our semi-dedicated solutions shall permit you to choose how many instances of each accelerator will work at a time and the amount of memory they will use.

All
virtual private servers that are integrated with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you will receive several hundred megabytes of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, which is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them in case that visitor opens them again, therefore the server will not have to perform any action. Due to the fact that Varnish operates considerably faster than any web server, a website employing this accelerator will operate several times quicker. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it's used for WordPress, Joomla
™ and other script-driven applications which store their content within a database. Node.js is a powerful platform for creating scalable web apps.

dedicated server from our company and you select Hepsia as the hosting CP, you'll be able to use Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your websites. All plans include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the specific amount depends on the package deal that you select.

Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven site, not simply will the site speed up, but also the load on the web server will decline because there shall be a lesser amount of database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases.

Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests faster than any web server, the performance of an Internet site using this accelerator could increase as much as 300%.
