A web accelerator is a software application which accelerates a website usually by caching content and providing it instead of the web server. Such applications may be used for both dynamic and static Internet sites as there are different accelerators which can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The main advantage of employing a web accelerator is that a given Internet site shall perform noticeably faster without employing additional resources. Quite the opposite, this type of a website will need a lesser amount of resources to function because the web accelerator will handle most requests instead of the hosting server. Contrary to many companies that don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer only one, we offer 3 different ones which will allow you to speed up your Internet sites whatever their kind or content.

Web Accelerators in Website Hosting

Our website hosting solutions include three web accelerators which you could use depending on the sites that you would like to run. Memcached is used to cache database or API calls and responses, which could greatly enhance the performance of dynamic websites. Varnish is a popular HTTP accelerator that caches webpages and delivers them to the website visitors much quicker than the hosting server after the first time they open them. Node.js is an event-driven platform employed for scalable real-time apps such as booking websites. Based on the Internet hosting plan you choose, these 3 applications might already be included or could be optional upgrades. In any case, you will be able to choose how many instances of each of them will be at your disposal and what amount of memory they ought to use. These accelerators are supplied only by several hosting providers, including ours, and they can boost the speed of your web applications significantly.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia CP which is provided with our semi-dedicated server packages shall allow you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your Internet sites. Memcached is among the most famous accelerators since it can easily increase the speed of any API or database-driven site by caching requests and responses, thus the server won't have to process identical requests over and over again. The platform is perfect for Internet sites developed with applications such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a highly effective accelerator that caches any kind of content and is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches webpages which are opened by a visitor for the first time and delivers them each time that same site visitor opens them again. Varnish can easily accelerate a site several times simply because it delivers content faster than any server. Node.js is a platform used for scalable real-time programs like chats, browser games or social networks. It processes info in little pieces the moment a user enters something, as a result it works considerably faster than similar platforms where users submit big parts of data that require time to be processed. You can pick the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each and every one of the three accelerators via your Control Panel.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

Memcached, Varnish and Node.js are offered with all dedicated servers ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and depending on the package you pick, you will also have several gbs of dedicated memory for them. Memcached will minimize the web server load by lowering the amount of queries that need to be taken care of as it caches database calls and responses. You'll be able to use it on any Internet site which uses an API or a database - as an illustration, any website created with WordPress or Joomla™. Varnish can easily boost the performance of any kind of Internet site by caching whole webpages the first time a visitor opens them. The accelerator provides the webpages if the same visitor opens them later and because it does that way quicker than the hosting server, the website visitor shall be able to surf your Internet site at least several times faster. That's why Varnish is often categorised as an HTTP reverse proxy. Node.js is a sophisticated platform that'll permit you to develop booking sites, web chats and other programs where real-time server-user interaction is required. It processes the info in tiny parts as the client fills different boxes and doesn't wait for all boxes to be filled and processed as one substantial piece of information, which makes Node.js considerably faster than similar applications.
