Web Accelerators
What precisely do web accelerators do? What could you do to be able to increase your website's load speed?
A web accelerator is a server-side app which accelerates a site. Such a piece of software could operate in different ways depending on the site content, but in the typical situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the server. This is valid for both dynamic and static sites as the cached content may be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator isn't only the faster loading Internet site, but also the reduced overall load on the hosting server. That way, you'll be able to use a lower-end hosting package which will also cost less while your website visitors will be able to still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Several service providers supply web accelerators with their hosting deals and they typically offer just 1, while we offer 3 different ones that'll permit you to improve the performance of any kind of website considerably.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
When you purchase one of our
shared hosting packages, you will have 3 widely used web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly through the Hepsia CP which is included with our packages. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it could considerably speed up any site because it caches the web pages which a visitor opens for the first time and provides them each and every time that website visitor opens them again. Since Varnish operates faster than any hosting server, the loading speed of any site using the accelerator will improve noticeably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between an Internet site visitor and a server, so it's similar to Varnish, but is used largely for database-driven websites. Considering that the site will connect to its database a lot less, the overall hosting server load shall be decreased substantially. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online programs such as chats and booking Internet sites as it processes data in real time the moment it is entered on the webpage by the users. Depending on the plan you choose, these accelerators may be available or could be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our
semi-dedicated server plans shall permit you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - 3 of the most efficient web accelerators available on the market. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, thus it could easily accelerate any script-driven site. You may use it for any site built with WordPress or Joomla
™, for instance. Varnish is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it is a general-purpose caching platform which could be employed for any sort of websites. Based on the content, it could boost the performance of a site roughly 300%. Node.js is an innovative system used to build scalable Internet apps that process info in real time such as booking portals. Its advantage is that different from similar platforms, it processes info constantly and in small parts as opposed to waiting for the user to submit one sizeable chunk of data. The accelerators can be enabled for any Internet site via the Hepsia CP and you will be able to pick how many instances of every one of them shall work and how much memory they shall use.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
Memcached, Varnish and Node.js come with all
dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and based on the plan which you pick, you'll also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached can minimize the server load by lowering the amount of queries that need to be taken care of since it caches database calls and responses. You shall be able to use it on any website that uses an API or a database - for example, any website created with WordPress or Joomla
™. Varnish could enhance the performance of any sort of site by caching whole pages the first time a guest opens them. The accelerator delivers the pages if the very same visitor opens them afterwards and since it does that considerably quicker than the web server, the website visitor shall be able to look through your Internet site at least a few times faster. For this reason Varnish is occasionally categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform that will allow you to develop booking sites, web chats and other applications where real-time server-user interaction is needed. It processes the data in small parts as the user fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one sizeable piece of information, which makes Node.js considerably faster than similar programs.
