A web accelerator is a software application that accelerates a website usually by caching content and delivering it instead of the hosting server. Such programs could be used for both dynamic and static sites because there are various accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The best thing about using a web accelerator is that a given site shall perform significantly faster without employing additional system resources. Quite the opposite, this type of a website will demand a lesser amount of resources to operate as the web accelerator will take care of most requests instead of the hosting server. In contrast to many businesses that don't offer web accelerators with their packages or offer only one, we offer 3 different ones which will enable you to speed up your sites regardless of their type or content.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

When you host your sites inside a shared hosting account from our company, you will have three popular web accelerators to pick from if you'd like to boost the sites' performance. Memcached is employed for database-driven Internet sites and it caches the calls and requests between a site and its database, so it can easily decrease the load of such sites significantly. Varnish caches entire pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them from there on if the same guest opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the web server, so it can increase the loading speed of any Internet site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time programs which operates on the server and not in the visitor's browser. It is employed for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other apps where a lot of data should be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends upon the hosting package which you choose - they might 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

You'll be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the sites hosted inside your semi-dedicated hosting account based on the nature of the site content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, therefore it is an excellent choice for any script program like WordPress or Joomla™. That way, the database web server won't need to process exactly the same request if a number of users open a website with the same content. Varnish is similar, but it's a general-purpose accelerator as it caches any kind of content the first time a website visitor opens a page. If that web page is opened again by the very same website visitor, it will be delivered by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the hosting server. Using this web accelerator can reduce the load created by your sites considerably. Last, but not least, Node.js will enable you to create scalable web apps like hotel booking Internet sites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it doesn't wait for a customer to submit a large piece of info, but processes whatever the customer is inputting in real-time. The three web accelerators are available in the Hepsia Control Panel and you shall be able to choose how many instances of each and every one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Web Hosting

If you obtain a virtual private server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. All 3 accelerators are incorporated inside our plans by default and feature dedicated memory of a few hundred megabytes. Node.js is used to build scalable apps where real-time interaction is needed - booking Internet sites, online flash games, chats, etcetera. It processes the information in small portions as the user is entering it, thus it functions much faster than other platforms which wait for the end users to input one big piece of info. Varnish is a general-purpose accelerator that operates as an HTTP proxy. It caches content and delivers it if the same guest opens the same website again, which can easily speed any website several times as Varnish functions more quickly than any server. Memcached is employed for caching API and database responses, so it's ideal for script-driven Internet sites like WordPress and Joomla™. This web accelerator can lessen the load on your server as it will lower the number of database queries which your sites make.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers Hosting

In case you get a dedicated server from our firm and you opt for Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you shall be able to employ Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your sites. All packages include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the exact amount depends on the plan you choose. Node.js is used for scalable online apps like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data instantly as the client enters it, which makes it considerably quicker than comparable platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven website, not only will the Internet site work faster, but also the load on the web server will minimize because there shall be less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not limited to databases. Instead, it caches entire web pages once a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server each and every time the same visitor opens them later. Because Varnish processes web requests faster than any web server, the efficiency of a site using this accelerator can increase up to 300%.
