Web Accelerators
What precisely do web accelerators do? What could you do in order to increase your site's load speed?
A web accelerator is a software application which speeds up an Internet site usually by caching content and supplying it instead of the web server. Such programs can be employed for both dynamic and static websites as there are different accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The advantage of employing a web accelerator is that a given site shall perform noticeably faster without employing additional system resources. Just the opposite, such a site will need a lesser amount of resources to function as the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the web server. In contrast to many businesses which don't offer web accelerators with their packages or offer one, we offer three different ones which will permit you to speed up your websites irrespective of their type or content.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting
If you host your Internet sites within a
shared hosting account from our firm, you will have 3 popular web accelerators to pick from if you would like to boost the sites' performance. Memcached is employed for database-driven sites and it caches the calls and requests between a site and its database, so it can easily minimize the load of such sites significantly. Varnish caches whole web pages the first time a visitor opens them and delivers them from there on if the same visitor opens them again. It does that much more quickly than the server, so it can easily increase the loading speed of any site as much as 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time apps that functions on the hosting server and not within the visitor's web browser. It is used for accommodation booking, chats and other applications where lots of data needs to be processed in real time. The availability of these accelerators depends upon the hosting solution which you pick - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you shall be able to add more instances or more memory for each one of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
semi-dedicated hosting solutions shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js - three of the most effective web accelerators out there. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses, thus it can easily boost any script-driven website. You may use it for any Internet site developed with WordPress or Joomla
™, for instance. Varnish is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it's a general-purpose caching platform which could be employed for any sort of websites. Based on the content, it may improve the performance of an Internet site roughly 300%. Node.js is a sophisticated system employed to build scalable Internet programs that process information in real time for example booking portals. Its advantage is that different from comparable platforms, it processes information consistently and in small pieces as opposed to waiting for the user to submit one massive chunk of data. The accelerators could be enabled for any Internet site from the Hepsia CP and you shall be able to choose how many instances of each one of them shall work and how much memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
All
virtual private servers which are incorporated with the Hepsia CP come with Varnish, Memcached and Node.js already included and you will get several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for them by default. Varnish, which is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy, caches web pages the first time a site visitor opens them and delivers them in case that guest opens them again, therefore the hosting server shall not have to perform any action. Because Varnish works faster than any web server, a website employing this accelerator shall work several times swifter. Memcached is a platform which caches database calls and responses and it is employed for WordPress, Joomla
™ and other script-driven apps which store their content in a database. Node.js is a powerful platform for developing scalable web apps. Any info on a website which employs Node.js is processed right away, which makes it a superb choice for dining and accommodation booking websites, web-based chats, web browser games, and so forth.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are offered by default with all our
dedicated servers which are ordered with Hepsia as the web hosting CP. These 3 web accelerators include several gigabytes of dedicated memory and you can use them to speed up any type of website. Memcached can substantially lessen the load on the server if you have script-driven Internet sites because it caches database responses, so it lessens the amount of database queries that the hosting server has to handle. Node.js will allow you to create scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction like chats or dining booking Internet sites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes info as soon as the user enters it, so all the data is taken care of quicker and in small parts. Varnish caches entire webpages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them each time the same website visitor opens them again, which makes it a universal accelerator for any sort of Internet sites. Because it works quicker than any hosting server, it could speed up an Internet site at least several times and due to this fact, Varnish is one of the most widely used web accelerators out there.
