A web accelerator is a software application that speeds up an Internet site usually by caching content and supplying it instead of the web server. Such apps can be employed for both static and dynamic websites because there are various accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The main advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given website will perform substantially faster without employing more system resources. Quite the opposite, such a site will demand much less resources to operate as the web accelerator will take care of most requests instead of the server. Unlike many firms that do not offer web accelerators with their solutions or offer just one, we offer 3 different ones that will enable you to speed up your sites regardless of their style or content.
Web Accelerators in Hosting
Our hosting solutions feature 3 web accelerators that you can employ depending on the websites which you would like to run. Memcached is employed to cache database or API calls and responses, which can tremendously improve the efficiency of dynamic websites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator which caches webpages and delivers them to the visitors way quicker than the web server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time applications including booking websites. With respect to the web hosting package you choose, these 3 applications could already be included or could be optional upgrades. In any case, you'll be able to pick how many instances of each of them shall be at your disposal and how much memory they ought to use. These accelerators are offered only by a handful of hosting companies, including ours, and they can easily boost the speed of your web programs considerably.
Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
The Hepsia CP that is included with our semi-dedicated server packages will permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. Memcached is among the most famous accelerators since it can easily speed up any API or database-driven website by caching requests and responses, consequently the web server will not have to process identical requests time after time. The platform is perfect for sites built with applications such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is an effective accelerator which caches any type of content and is also frequently called an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages that are opened by a visitor for the first time and provides them each and every time that same website visitor opens them again. Varnish can speed up a site several times as it delivers content quicker than any web server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time applications like chats, Internet browser games or social networks. It processes information in smaller bits the instant a user types anything, therefore it works considerably faster than similar platforms where users submit large portions of data that need time to be processed. You can pick the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the three accelerators using your CP.
Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
We provide Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers that are purchased with the Hepsia CP. Your web server will also come with a few hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the specific amount depends on the package deal that you select. Memcached is used for script-driven websites since it caches database responses, consequently decreasing the amount of queries that 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 apps including booking sites and chats. The real-time interaction between users and a server is conducted by processing small pieces of data as soon any user inputs anything on the site. In contrast, other platforms wait for customers to input a considerable amount of info before they process it, as a result they work slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches whole pages and provides them instead of the server at a considerably faster rate. It's also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it can easily speed up any type of site.
Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are available by default with all our dedicated servers that are ordered with Hepsia as the website hosting Control Panel. These 3 web accelerators offer several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you could employ them to speed up any kind of website. Memcached can drastically decrease the load on the hosting server if you have script-driven sites because it caches database responses, thus it decreases the amount of database queries which the web server has to handle. Node.js shall enable you to develop scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction including chats or dining booking websites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes info the moment the end user enters it, so all the info is taken care of faster and in small portions. Varnish caches entire Internet pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them every time the same guest opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any type of sites. Since it operates quicker than any hosting server, it can speed up an Internet site at least several times and as a result, Varnish is amongst the most widely used web accelerators available on the market.
